Site Details

Notes

There are various towers here, with different people responsible for each. Installs are initial worked out with Scott McQueen and then coordinated with Lance Ginner.

Plans

Recently (April, 2023) sent a formal letter to Ross to see if we can use the site.

Commercial Neighbors

Mount Allison is very crowded with many commercial neighbors. The spectrum use between 5 GHz and 6.2 GHz can be found here, but starts at 5.945 GHz and runs though to 6.197 GHz. The spectrum not in use is that allocated to amateur radio.
