I have adapted the mount on the donated sector antenna for the 4.5 inch legs of the WFRV tower.

I need to build an ice bridge/shield to mount above this antenna, or it will likely not survive any falling ice.

I am seeking a 3x3 ft piece of expanded metal for this.

This is that mesh like stuff typically used on the gate of a trailer. So if anyone can get a scrap piece or tell me where to that would be helpful.

Metal has been found and the thing is built.

I am awaiting Pete's return from Europe in mid June. At that point we will talk to the WFRV engineer and the first project will be to replace the 775 antenna.

We also ordered some Ubiquiti tough cable yesterday.

I see Wausau is playing on 2.4 GHz.
