And if the SS pops, then you'll be climbing it anyway...? And the it
keeps tripping because of the FM, then you'll be climbing to take it
out. Just sayin'. :)

Me. I don't want the radio to pop if I have to climb it :(

I debated installing a GigE-SS-HV up next to the radios, but every
time I've tried that on FM sites in the past, we had to take them
out, so I skipped it and pray for the best. And the 450 has
built-in TVSS, which I know has saved a couple radios in the past.
Plus the ePMP radio is $100, so who cares.

That's definitely enlightening. I'll be doing the climbing and
I'm really expecting to do fiber and two wire for 250 feet
leaving 20' cat5 eth/power/sync runs.

I have a connectorized ePMP on a 2' dish at 125 feet on a
50kW FM site. The bays start at 420 feet though. And it's
50kW EIRP. Something like 15-16kW actually on the
transmission line. There's also a low power station at 250
feet, but it's under 3kW I think. The 450 AP at 225 feet sees
some CRC errors sometimes. The ePMP radio doesn't have any
problems though. The guys didn't listen to me and ran our
cat5 bundle right next to the high power transmission line.
"But there were waveguide brackets there, it was so easy!" I
smash your face now.

Has anyone had good luck on FM stations recently? I would
*LOVE* for the radios to have an SFP, but it seems that's
just not available. I'm wonder if fiber up ~250' and
then 10-20 foot shielded cat5 would be sufficient to
protect the ethernet ports from such high power.
I'm also weary about getting on the tower for having such
high power 250 feet away, but that's a secondary issue.
