Sometimes, e-mail doesn't come across the way we intend.

All I was trying to write is that when you are going to spend a large  
amount of money on the equipment, and installation, you need to get  
into some very specific discussions with people you can trust.  That  
MAY be your Consulting Engineering Firm, or if you have the  
background, you may wish to talk to some of the engineering types at  
your equipment vendors.

Bob Groome, Bob Surette (or Joe Rohrer), or someone at ERI would be  
GREAT places to start.  I cannot think of anyone at ERI since Bob  
left (HA!).  (OK, maybe the third antenna Bob, or Tom...).

It just seems to me that, while getting some general direction from  
this list is great, if you are getting down to the short strokes on a  
project like that, it is time to call in the high(er) priced spread.

No offense to anyone here, but if one is asking those sorts of basic  
questions...
