Look up the charger. "smartbridges equipment
specific". That's NOT tower stuff.
I'm just trying to keep the traffic down to a level
that the average user can handle.

I'm not trying to argue, but I
respectfully disagree
I still say
if you are using sB radios and anything that concerns them are relevant, ie
towers, servers, routers, backhauls, battery backup, solar power,
antennas, etc.
Why
should you have to monitor several sites if you are using sB radios,
this one is hard enough to keep with
Don't take this the wrong way, I may need your advice
sometime

observation

righto. But this particular list is there
for support of the RADIO's not everything else. There are 2 other good
email lists and a web based forum designed for generic
questions.
That help?

OK Marlon
I've seen this happen more than once on this
site
For some reason or another someone only wants to talk about the
subject they want to talk about
I would think if you are a smartBridges user and you were using
them on a tower and you wanted to ask about a tower or
anything concerning these radios you should be able to post a
question
Some of us may not be as learned as others
Why not ask questions to the people using the same radios as you
are
My observations
Joe K
btw guys, i didn't notice what list this is
on. These generic questions really belong on the [EMAIL PROTECTED] list rather than the TT tech
support one.
thanks

$2500 is not expensive compared to
spending $500 a month to be on someone else's towe.

Ouch. Thats what I have been
finding out. Much simpler and cheaper to run off other towers
unless you have the cash to outlay :(
Any other suggestions?

Towers
We built our own tower and it was
rather inexpensive. I have a friend who was in the two way
radio business for 40 years and built lots of towers, so he was
very helpful. We bought the 100' steel tower (Rohn 25G) from
Hutton (www.huttononline.com),
picked it up locally, for less than $1k. We used friends /
relatives for labor (free) so the only additional cost was the
concrete, rebar, guy wires, and miscellaneous hardware. It
was not that difficult to build, took us about 4 days, mainly due
to the over 100 degree heat. Total investment was less than
$2.5k. If you need any help with how to build one, what
parts to buy, want to see pictures of ours going up, etc., just
email me offline ([EMAIL PROTECTED])
and I will be happy to help.

Towers
I was wonder what everyone is doing
for towers? I have high trees in my area, 70 foot high in
some cases. I'm running off a radio station tower now, but
what other options are there? I have found a 100 foot
telescoping tower for like $3,200 bucks, but you need a crane
and a big ass crew just to get the thing up, not to mention the
guy wires.
Anyone have any suggestions?
