[Tfug] why not cable? Wireless Option...

[Michael Bernstein]

Rush, 
Can you see downtown Tucson at all, like top of the BofA building(tower
on 2nd tallest Building with blinking light)??  Or how about Beacon hill
in Marana, it is the ridge up in Marana that has 3 cell towers on it?
Or the new Marana town Hall?   I'll check to topos on Monday at the
office as well.

Mike,

My lat is 32.034166, lon is 111.234444, elevation is 3120 ft with a
great unrestricted view of Marana to the north and the whole south flank
of the Tucson Mountains. There are very few business out here, only
residences, so I don't think T1 would be needed. 

In any case I have 12 acres and could certainly dedicate a part to a
tower for a free feed. My tel # is 520 240 7493 if you want to talk.

In addition to the 25 or so towers in and around Tucson, Simply Bits has
several new towers(and a couple more going in) that hit the back side of
the Tucson Mountains.  Hit me off list with an address or Lat/Lon and we
can check if we can help out.  

Also, if anyone out there who has a great view, elevation matters(read
in-- possible transmission point:) and would be interested in a Free
feed of 20-45Mbps off of our backbone let us know, we are always looking
for that next great site(esp. Vail, Oro Valley, Green Valley. Avra
Valley, Sahuarita)
