Right, but you can't expect any serious penetration with only them. I am considering special plans that only apply to the subdivisions immediately around my suburban water towers. I could get something like the new RF Elements horns and have some crazy downtilt so that my signal doesn't go further out than 2 miles. That high elevation will help out with that much downtilt. Now my fastest two plans are 4 megs for $60 and 10 megs for $100. I've been considering doubling the speed across the board, but I may need to revisit that offering to see how well it stacks up against them.
