Sounds like a good business opportunity for some construction worker types who can learn how to do turnkey Rohn 25G installations for customer sites... Maybe financing of a tower build? If you take $8000 and divide it by 96 months with a reasonable interest rate it's not so terrible. Particularly considering how much some people (not the $24.95/mo type customer) will pay for services in rural locations. Not too rare to find someone paying $95/mo for consumer grade VSAT service and then another $70 on top of that for satellite TV.
