It really depends on the roof. If it's pretty flat then you'll likely have to get up there a ways. If it's sloped away from your antenna it may not take much.

This, sir, will likely be a try it and see issue.

If you're gonna press for a number though, I'd probably put up one of those 20 or 30' guyed push up masts and mount your gear on as many of those as it takes. They are cheap, easy to bring down for work on devices etc.

Subject: [WISPA] Height above metal roof


I have been offered the roof of a barn in my area to mount 900, 2.4 and
5.8 APs.

What is the minimum height above the metal that I want to be at if I
were to mount omnis?

I figured you folks would know with all the talk of metal water towers
and metal silos.

Thanks!

ryan
