How do you guys secure these totes? Mix an 80 lb sack of Quickcrete in the bottom? Padlock on the outside -- one key for you and one for the customer? Do you run two pvc sweeps - one for current and one for cat-5? Anything to keep pests out of those sweeps? Do you insulate around the battery to

The cost of shipping the panel no doubt, that's why I'm trying to find a panel supplier in Ohio. The panels I got put out voltage but evidently don't trip the sunsaver to go into charge mode. I took Sam's advice and got the batteries and sunsaver and with just two batteries I can run a TS,

I'm not talking about customers plotting where their address is. What I'm getting at is if I have a customer called in, I'd like to just punch in the location and then see if they'll work at ground level or how high we need to get off the ground and see the signal change as I increment height.

On Radio Mobile you have to add the site, just like towercoverage.com. On RM, though, you simply hit - or + to go up and down in height. Josh Luthman Office: 937-552-2340 Direct: 937-552-2343 1100 Wayne St Suite 1337 Troy, OH 45373 On Wed, Apr 9, 2014 at 3:27 PM, Clay Stewart

The limitation you're seeing of having to add another site to change the rx elevation is because calculating path loss to one point is relatively easy. Calculating it for the entire coverage area takes a fair amount of computing power, to the point that even on really fast hardware, it needs
