Thanks for the details! (But would you need to haul equipment up to the roof? Couldn’t you insert your transmitter anywhere in the line of sight?)

- h2odragon 5y agoYeah, I just assume "roof" cuz that's where antennas will be. That kind of thing is as close to "tight beam" as can be managed with antennas, usually; and that can be quite small.
- jessaustin 5y agoNot an expert, but some lines of sight stretch from the top of one building to the top of another. Chicago doesn't have any mountains nearby, so those lines would just extend out into space and never touch the ground.
- mark-r 5y agoThe frequencies involved would be blocked by buildings, so the "line of sight" would necessarily be above them. Thus, rooftop.
