We've done this from time to time. Use stainless screws, regular ones rust after just a few years.
Make sure that the customer knows that you will have to re-aim the antenna from time to time. Things may have to be trimmed depending on what kind of tree it is etc. Out here a lot of people have big Poplar trees. They are always in the way (unless you want them for a windbreak then they work well) but make good radio mounting points. We don’t have a contract for it. It's their tree and their service.... I've not ever charged anyone to go back and re-aim the antennas but we do tell them that it would be a cost if we have to do so. Most of the time the aiming has stayed spot on long enough that the customer is due for an upgrade anyway.

I don't want to be held responsible if the tree changes in any way as resulted by the mounting. This customer in particular has an old tree and doesn't want to take it down, but he has no problem putting screws into it. Because it is a "family tree" I don't want anything to come back on us. Any assistance is greatly appreciated =) Josh Luthman Office: 937-552-2340 Direct: 937-552-2343 1100 Wayne St Suite 1337 Troy, OH 45373 _______________________________________________ Wireless mailing list Wireless@wispa.org http://lists.wispa.org/mailman/listinfo/wireless _______________________________________________ Wireless mailing list Wireless@wispa.org http://lists.wispa.org/mailman/listinfo/wireless
