I found one app for android called Theodolite, but it's lame... What app are you using?

LOL, definitely not in LOS territory. 90% of our rural stuff won’t see the towers.

We use tower coverage as well, but it doesn’t show the angle (degrees) to the tower.

When an account (in Powercode) is made through Towercoverage API, it'll add the estimated signals to the tower starting with the closest ones. That ticket could always be pulled up.

As far as alignment, I would think you're in LOS territory with 5 GHz so once you know where the tower is, you can aim for it by eyeball instead of app.

    Anyone have a favorite app??  (android or iPhone) for putting in the
    LAT/LONG of all the towers, so that the newbies have a general
    direction to a tower from their location.

    Looking to import (or type them) in all the towers..

    Thanks!
