Feech

I used flickr and it worked no issues ..Thanks guys..

What happened to that dude, said he worked at a hotel right and that he had talked to them? I hate to say it but I'm suspect of anyone that isn't a sponsor with some posts under their belt

I'll check that one out at some point this weekend then..Was it a monopole, guyed, or self supporting

Dude your wife is awesome..My girlfriend looks at me like I'm insane when I grab the camera and head out the door..I actually wanted to start another post about our better halves and this thing we do.

Here are some better pics of the painted tower I think Wildman was at compared to the one I took this morning.

And I wish had know you were coming from Tarpon, there is another site that is in Oldsmar that this company has a permit pulled for. I'm wondering if they have done work there.

Wildman, don't make me go all Tony Soprano on you, stay out of my territory lol..Good work. The guyed tower was that on 49th st?

Another thing too something must have changed in the nesting laws too. When I climbed back about 10 years ago we could climb the tower but could not disturb the nest, or we could climb as long as there was no bird present. I can say almost every tower I come across here has a nest or at least the beginning of one.

I'll throw this in just for fuel for the fire. Although the nesting season is real here in Florida that just applies to the climbing of the tower. It does not prevent contractors from doing work at the site. Slabs and cabinets could have been completed before hand without any tower work done. if that had been set up then 2-3 days tower time and the work could have been done. I'm not saying this has not been done here in this state but it is something that should have been done. With the weather that we get here in the summer this is really the ideal time to get work started. I'm only speaking of this area of course.

Looks like it but it's hard to tell from that distance. And all the panels look the same I think not should only be one Sent from my EVO using Tapatalk 2

Well that was the plan to be done by end of next year I think. Some places like here in Florida need to be built out now so you don't have to touch a tower again during nesting season and run into the same issues with slow down. I honestly think they are doing things right. Sent from my EVO using Tapatalk 2

Kept Robert believe that.. This is turning into a part time job.. That I love of course The painted tower SEEMS to be complete meaning I'm not seeing anything going on there with the cabinets or anything. I want to go back later and get some people pics with my real camera. I can get right on the tower with no problems and it's also the lowest site on it (less than 200' definitely) so I should be able to snap some good pics. Sent from my EVO using Tapatalk 2

They actually call it the Lealman area the corner of 66th st and I think 38th Ave Sent from my EVO using Tapatalk 2

I'm kinda pissed. I have been doing nothing the past few weeks but waiting for this to happen, of course this is the weekend that I have a wedding I'm going to and have people in town. This site I saw this morning is the by the same company from my pics yesterday. Company by the name of New Tech, Simms in the name on most permits.. They seem to have a pretty good operation and plenty of equipment. They have pulled some more permits up in the Palm Harbor area and the reception for the wedding is in that area too, so I may be able to strategically plan the trip up there to pass a few sites to see if the panels are up yet on this sites. I imagine they are. I worked briefly with the owner of this company and he is a real shi* and get type of dude. I may find that all the panels are up on the sites where they have pulled permits. Another thing. This would be the 2nd site with panels, and if I count the other roof top site that I'm pretty sure is with panels that makes 3 sites. Based on those 3 and the location I'm pretty sure this is going to be a pretty hopping spot for LTE. The furthest is not more than 5 miles with a tower with panels in between. Thanks to Sensorly its pretty easy to figure out the path this will take based on other users in other areas.

And I have a second site where panels are up..sorry the pics are bad only have the EVO with me Sent from my EVO using Tapatalk 2

I use photobucket.. Which link do you use to post the pics Sent from my EVO using Tapatalk 2

Right on 66th st Sent from my EVO using Tapatalk 2

Pinellas park/Kenneth City Sent from my EVO using Tapatalk 2

Oh one other thing.. These panels are distinctive as hell. Once you see them there is no question you won't recognize then again. Sent from my EVO using Tapatalk 2

I'm pretty pumped.. This is right up the street from me.. The tower techs were driving off when I came back for the pics.. The Ericsson tech I'm assuming was who was left behind. I was hoping he was still there cuz I was gonna interview his ass lol. They left the tower rigged and the cable they ran last week to the sectors were untouched.. I need to check the other permits they have pulled too. Sent from my EVO using Tapatalk 2

I have been trying to post pics to the site for a few weeks and most of the time its a fail. Can someone explain this to me? Most of the time I get a message about the extension I'm using..

So I have been quiet the last couple of days tired of the LTE talk mostly but no more.. I can confirm now that they are starting in Pinellas county.. The site last week that was rigged is now getting panels as I type.. I will try to come back for pics. Sent from my EVO using Tapatalk 2

I'm not saying that the info is wrong

No they are not upgraded
