I couldn't go very many places if I needed signal at the ground. ;-) Mine
are 5 gig and mostly placed on TV towers, though there are a couple on
roofs\walls.

I guess you guys do your signal checks with this truck? Any downside? Can
it be used to lift anything up to a tower top?

Scriv;
We don't do signal checks with the truck. If our installers can't make
link from the ground or using few mast sections to check the signal we
don't install. I tell them not to climb. Sometimes they do climb but I
discourage it. I'd rather just put in another pop.
The truck we have has 900 lbs lift capacity in the bucket. It is an 80'
snorkel truck and cost $9,999.00 @ sixty thousand miles.
We use it to install and maintain our pops. Remember we are a 900 MHz
canopy shop. We deploy our pops at about 80 feet in dense canopy.
