Even in our area in eastern Indiana there is lots of 5.8 still available for PTP. 700 PTP is not necessary in my opinion.
I am concerned about 700 Mhz antenna sizes. Aren't sectors going to be huge to get the 4 watt at the antenna? I am also concerned about the CPE Panel size. Going from a 15" Panel to a 20" panel gives us a lot more wind issues at the client. Don't get me wrong I am excited about the whitespace out come. I appreciated the work of the Whitespace committee. We have tower owners who are concerned about the sizes of our antennas now. Change from a 12 foot 900 Omni to a 16+ foot 700 will not get rave reviews.

To those of you that understand the extreme rural environments... Is this at all necessary? I don't see why it would be. ----- Mike Hammett Intelligent Computing Solutions http://www.ics-il.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -------- WISPA Wants You!
