750 feet through the trees: The lower the frequency, the less the trees matter. So 2.4 GHz is better than 5 GHz, 900 MHz even better. Not sure there's a good commercial solution below that. Even 440 MHz is affected, while 150 hardly at all.
No chance you could run some Ethernet, is there? drainage culverts sometimes offer a solution to cross streets...

Yep, just don't ask me to be one of the poor saps who has to lug a steel pipe, plus the payload, up that 60' tower; and then hold the pipe & payload upright and aloft to attach it to the tower.
That's not a desk job. I'll create the drawings, if someone else will do the climbing  .

I feel that the only friends I have ever had are people I know through FIRST. Being on a team gave me the sense of belonging that I thought I didn't even need. FIRST has given me a great life that I never thought I would have. - Alaina [more]
