Patrick, I think I asked 2 or 3 times, and maybe it's my fault and I missed your reply, but what are the costs besides the radio and the antenna?
Remember guys this isn't a pmp450 or rocket m5, there is a bunch of software and hardware on the backend that must be in place before a customer can connect, right Patrick ? If I had even a vague idea of what that part would cost, I might consider a trial tower with 3 sectors...
