Interesting So then, I guess this brings up another issue. Could the
Cellular company also be held liable? Could they have mounted their cabling
a different way that would have better disappated heat or isolated their
cabling from the tower, knowing that one day it might need welding
What actually caught on fire from the welder?
If it was unsafe or unfit conditions, the welder should not have
proceeded. The cause is the actions of the welder.

Tom,
You raise an interesting and valid question about whether a tower (or
tank) "Best Practices" should be followed by all cellular and WISP
operators.
Personally, I have to ask if perhaps this might just have been an "Act
of Zod"?

This is why companies like American Tower, Spectrasite, and others have
always required a structural engineering study. The engineers sign off on
it, and you are supposed to install based up that plan. Sucks, but is a way
of CYA.

These problems happen throughout the day, not just during their maintenance
window. They have made us give them extensive information about the problem
we and our customers have been having. I hope to have a resolution soon, or
we will be switching 1000+ users to another provider. Anyone

That looks like something I would beat my kids with.

If they could make them look like that new then maybe the lightning could be
fooled to leave it alone.
could that work?

You can't use a fiberglass omni at the top of a tower and expect it to
survive a strike unless it has a copper groundrod built inside of it
protruding from the top in which it was designed to take a strike. Learned
this from various HAM radio operators. Only 2.4ghz omni I know of that has a
metal
FYI, I also use everyone.net and we are not experiencing this issue.
