I'm an EX 25 year, 2 - 3 pack-a-day smoker, now a dedicated vaper. I am the sole Tower Tech for a 2500+ customer WISP based in Central Maine, which makes me responsible for about 80 tower sites that span from the Downeast coast up to the Canadian border. I climb towers (and sometimes trees) that are from 30 to 400 feet tall, installing and maintaining cameras and radio equipment that ranges from small reflector dishes and omni antennas to 4 foot radome dishes and 7 foot omni and sector antennas. I also cable the tower, then program and install all of the ground/bunker equipment. Several of our sites are miles away from a utility power source so I have designed and built small solar systems for them, which consist of a rack of solar panels, a solar controller, a bank of batteries and a remote monitoring board. I regularly get (paid!) to ride in a helicopter or take an ATV or snowmobile to mountain tops in some of the most beautiful and rugged country that the North East has to offer. If you haven't figured it out yet, I really like my job. To be continued...
