The bigger issue is wether the barn is high enough for being a cell site.
If the Barn is up on high ground elevations, it might be OK.
Remember the freznel zone needs to be above the tree line for the LOS freqs.
I can tell you that I get nad reflections of regular roofs in many cases
when using less than 5 feet, wich is why we have a minimum 5ft mount height
when we use non-penetrating mounts. So you ar elikely to get harmful
reflection off the metal roof. The onlty fix is to keep going higher, or
position antenna at the edges with sectorized antennas

Subject: [WISPA] Height above metal roof
I have been offered the roof of a barn in my area to mount 900, 2.4 and
5.8 APs.
What is the minimum height above the metal that I want to be at if I
were to mount omnis?
I figured you folks would know with all the talk of metal water towers
and metal silos.
Thanks!
ryan
