3.2 miles out with dish signal could be higher but the sector is turned further away from this customer so I am still happy until we get another sector up there. I want to get as many as I can on this first sector before I go putting another one up as my rent will go up I am sure by a few dollars..

Low and behild the bottom cap fell right off? the bottom and top caps had no kind of glue to hold them in place to keep them from sliding off? If I would have left it this way who knows maybe a trip in the middle of the night to figure it out.

So we put silicon in the slot of the end caps and slid the bottom and front array covers back on. Not sure if this is a QA thing but kind of pissed me off..

SO BE AWARE!! before you mount this thing to check those end caps. I will say its an interesting array if you get a chance to look behind the plastic panel.

I am on two 10 floor highrises: one of them just asked me for 325 a month with a 75 dollar monthly increase every year.

So I will be investing some money to correct what issues it may have or possibly get the owners to fix one or the other. I have clients who already want service. For one I will be adding my own ground buss barr outside before entry to my eq..

Hit me offline when you do have time to discuss. For now I am going to be cleaning and mounting eq in the next couple weeks while addressing any electrical needs.

Sites that have "rent-collector" landlords rather than site managers end up looking just like your new site.

Been there, seen that, had to deal with it (I'm a licensed broadcast engineer).

I just noticed that grounding rod doesn't look like a 11 foot copper coated rod. I would recommend installing a new grounding rod and moving the rack's ground over to it.

That just looks like that iron rod you weld together then build forms for and poor concrete in when your building something like a bridge.

That is one sweet site.

edit: If the cell company has a grounding ring just connect your rack to it at the rod closest to the building. It will provide more protection then that.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-First-new-site-for-us-we-are-moving-in-27717018 Sun, 11 Nov 2012 13:36:46 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-First-new-site-for-us-we-are-moving-in-27716992 http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-First-new-site-for-us-we-are-moving-in-27716992 Sun, 11 Nov 2012 13:28:16 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-First-new-site-for-us-we-are-moving-in-27716979
BTW your getting an incredible deal on your bandwidth.

I did have a question on that copper ribbon ground from the base of the tower to the inside rack, who safe and reliable is that? Any suggestions for it or do you think it will be okay?

Should I also run an 8 guage ground from the rack to the main electrical feed panel?

Its about 120' tower we will be at 60' for the UBNT sector and PTP dish.

Thanks

1 sector, 1 PTP 2ft dish Lease -$600 per month which was negotiated down from $1200 just by asking..

We will give it a try at this site for a year to see what kind of take we get Fios is all round in the valley below but there are other areas this site sees that do not have anything more then slow if any DSL.

These are the ones we are going to target as well as ones who want to have a choice. Bandwidth will be pulled down below at a business via Time Warner fiber who will transport back to 1 Wilshire where we can get bandwidth off a Gig-e port for $2 per meg..

I plan on putting up the sector and backhaul by the end of the month to be ready for the winter months and hit it hard this X-mas season. The place where we are pulling the fiber to is already interested in buying bandwidth from us off the fiber directly which if I play my cards right they will end up paying for most circuit and I get free rent and power. Then all I do is a PTP up to the tower less then a mile away.

They have been trying for years to get fiber from Verizon and any ILEC with no success and the Time Warner feed passes right thru their property which in my book is a WIN WIN for both of us. TW said they have service to the building already as well as the Cell tower sites on the property but the MIS dept has never heard of any fiber to the buildings but we will see this next week either way its possible to get fiber there according to TW.

Retail on a 100x100 meg from Time Warner is like $5000 I am getting it for under $1000 plus my cost for bandwidth is $400 for 200 megs. I figure I can sell them bandwidth for 50x50 for like $1500-1600 maybe even more and they will be happier then pigs in you know what..
