Hey Marlon, I have an employee that has this exact setup and has been running it for 2 years with no problems.
Contact me offlist if you would like his name and number. I'm sure he would be glad to talk with you.

Schafer Sent: Monday, August 24, 2009 9:10 PM To: WISPA General List Cc: Principal WISPA Member List; isp-wirel...@isp-wireless.com Subject: [WISPA] solar site Hi All, Sorry for the cross post. Time is short on this project and I need a lot of help. I've never done a solar project. Never really even looked at them due to the costs I've seen tossed about. Now I have a customer that's willing to purchase the initial equipment needed to cover his community. The ONLY way into the area is a hill that's within sight of my tower and NOT anywhere near power. I'll be able to just run a single MT board with two radios in it for this site. One backhaul and 1 distribution. I'll guess that I'll have less than a 2 amp draw (probably much less than 1 amp in reality). We don't often get long periods of no sun. Could be days of fog or low clouds in the winter, but mostly we'll have a lot of sun. On the foggy or cloudy days we often don't have enough wind to worry about wind generation. I think. So, please clue me in on what to buy, who to buy it from (vendors welcome!) and anything else I'm missing. Thanks all! marlon ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -------- WISPA Wants You!
