The height is ok, but what is the capacity? they say WISP, amateur, OK,,
the WISP antennas are omni's, and panels (40"x5") with very little surface
area. WISP's have radios at 2.4Ghz and 5.8Ghz (I know, I own a WISP and
also install WISP's commerically) If you check the bxtowers.com site that
you are referred to from the Ebay advertisement they are advertising a 72'
tower with a 6sq ft max. Just because it advertises a wind speed
of 75-100 mph doesn't say at what wind load,,, check before you order......
For the price i'd sure check Titan Towers because their wind load is
double, triple and MORE (depending on the installed heights) than that of
the advertised rohn tower AND at the same price with shipping of $261.00
any place....
well my $.02.....
