                      It's not all differences in electrical potential... but the gravity of the wind at that height....

                                    Not a water tower in this case.. Most of those are around 200'

                                    Because I live in an area where only 1Mbps DSL is available so we have Wireless ISPs (WISPs)

                                          I should have 366Mbps by end of summer, if all goes well.. Still not 1Gbps though
