Life isn't as easy for us poor saps that have to climb towers

In my old age, I am beginning to appreciate the value of waveguide...sure, it 
adds a significant cost to the link ($5-10k), but, if you don't have in-house 
tower climbers, the labor savings over time can be quite significant -- 
depending on your time horizon, it may be worth investigating
