Network running like a well-oiled machine, less than 10 tech phone calls per 24 hours, sometimes just 2 or 3. We are well aware of future proofing and are doing that wherever possible. I think we have a few years at least even at 2.4, running 45 degree sectors, and smaller fill towers. We overlay what we can in 5 Ghz to give peak speeds. Licensed BH links wherever possible. If I had a local company that could provide 50Mbit plans for less than Mr. musk, I would take it all day long. Not everyone would of course. ATT has had fixed wireless in 80% of our coverage area, and we have lost 4 customers in 2 years to it. But, I have other businesses, and a recording musician if that industry ever comes back. They key is to be a honey badger at whatever you are doing!

On the one hand, itās magic not science. On the other hand, Elon Musk and T-Mobile are wanting to eat your lunch, not to mention government funded fiber. I think itās like getting people to pay to see you juggle running chainsaws, while they could instead watch Netflix or play Call Of Duty. Very difficult, yet customers would rather be doing something else.

We use tower coverage as well, but it doesnāt show the angle (degrees) to the tower.

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. Josh Luthman 24/7 Help Desk: 937-552-2340 Direct: 937-552-2343 1100 Wayne St Suite 1337 Troy, OH 45373 On Wed, Dec 2, 2020 at 12:44 PM Paul McCall < pa...@pdmnet.net > wrote: <blockquote> We have thatā¦ looking for more of a compass time app that will point him to a tower, based on stored LAT / LONG From: AF < af-boun...@af.afmug.com > On Behalf Of Chuck McCown via AF Sent: Wednesday, December 2, 2020 12:15 PM To: 'AnimalFarm Microwave Users Group' < af@af.afmug.com > Cc: Chuck McCown < ch...@go-mtc.com > Subject: Re: [AFMUG] Favorite AP for tower locating for techs Google Earth From: AF [ mailto:af-boun...@af.afmug.com ] On Behalf Of Paul McCall Sent: Wednesday, December 2, 2020 10:07 AM To: AnimalFarm Microwave Users Group < af@af.afmug.com > Subject: [AFMUG] Favorite AP for tower locating for techs Anyone have a favorite app??
