I think we agree on intent. I just decided it was easier to do my own
thing rather than bother with any of the wireless groups/lists where you
were continually harrassed for suggesting anything like this.

1) Permission from council. Have you ever tried to get a council
engineer to think outside the square. Most councils have regs stating
maximum height is 3m above roof top.
2) Cost. Two mates with clear line of sight on unit balconies is one
thing, but two houses suburbs apart in the burbs presents major problems
in many locations. And I would much rather spend that money on other
things in life.
3) The technicals are a piece of cake.

LGA, but we just can not afford the $20K per month tower access fee.
