Re: WISP site survey poles ?

Truck Mount1
Truck Mount2

I have never had a customer say I could not drive in the yard. I have had several asked if that would make it easier. Line of sight is that, a line. I can almost always find a place to get the truck that is one the line. Attached is my service truck mount.

I use a sB Outdoor and a 19dB grid for all sight surveys. I then calculate what antenna and radio to use.

My county has GIS maps available, so I get the latitude and longitude of the TV tower, or roof peak. I then use the tools at »gbppr.dyndns.org:8080/path.main.cgi to determine aximuth, up/down tilt, distance, etc. This one is nice, it even allows one to put in trees and buildings. I get that from the GIS map.

Hi Scott:

Thanks for the pictures. Thats a neat idea...just using wood to go into your trailer hitch.

I see you just clamp the pole a little further up to the bar on your truck.

How high can you go with your pole?

What kind of telescoping pole do you use?

Which company is SB Outdoor? I don't know the wireless companies all that well yet.
