Up to this point, all of the access points I have deployed have been on
water towers or buildings which did not have any other significant RF
equipment on them. I may have an opportunity to co-locate on a UHF
TV transmitter tower now though. Can someone tell me in just a few
words whether or not I should even consider mounting WISP equipment
on such a tower, and what some of the issues I would face would be?

According to the FCC site, the tower is operating  between 566-572 mhz
at about 12.5kW analog, and 7.2kW digital. Interference in unlicensed
bands (900mHz, 2.4gHz, and 5.8gHz), radio frequency hazards etc...
any information you could give me would be helpful.
