You removed your climbing harness from where you had draped it over the backhaul antennas to keep it out of your way while you were working on top of the tank?

One more clue.  The problem was RF related (links dropping) but was not 
due to the laptop wifi.

Here's a fun one I had the other day.

I have several Trango AP's and 2 Mikrotik backhauls on a water tank.  I
am making some upgrades to one of the backhaul links (better wireless
card).  I head up to the top of the tank, take out my laptop, plug it in
to the switch up there and boot up.  I head for the first backhaul and
before I even open the enclosure, I start getting alerts (SMS messages)
about BOTH of my backhaul links having problems.  I haven't touched
anything on them yet.

Figured out the problem and fixed it within about 20 minutes.  Any
guesses what the problem was?  Interested to see what everyone would
suspect first.
