Travis, We have one on a billboard at our Interstate exit. They had a sign that needed Internet connectivity for updates, so we worked out an agreement to provide the service at no cost if they allowed for a small 12db 2.4 omni to provide services to the area. We worked directly with the owner of the billboard and he is able to charge more for the LED signs that need Internet access. No issues. He pays electricity, did ask for insurance from us and we asked him for 24X7 access rights. Have never had to make a return trip yet. My guys hated it because it's a 80 ft monopole with peg legs. Very time consuming to climb.
