Will be interesting to see what the coverage through there is like, I feel it
may be too far up the hill for the daggy highway, lets know what the coverage
is like there. I will eventually check the Mt Mee rd around the back of the
cliffs around Freds rd to see what coverage is like, high gain antenna
direction...

The Mt Samson tower is also now on, around the back of the North Pine Dam,
between Winn RD & Hippathites Rds. tis on a hillside looks as high as this
'un, now there is excellent coverage all the way from Samford to Dayboro, no
drop-outs 'cept the school type drop-outs.. :-))
BTW no cell Id on that one either yet, I came home from the city that way
yesterday (Sunday) and saw the signal was full scale where there used to be
no service...

Us 2 headers up here are gettin cillyvised......

They normally do after a couple of weeks, add the cell broadcast to the CBC.
