I'm working on a WiFi/WiMAX system to service Shutesbury/Levrett. Current plan is to bounce a signal from 1 Federal St. to Mount Tom and then over to Mount Toby. I still need to find antenna placements and I'm evaluating some hardware vendors. I plan on using licensed frequencies for the backbone they are more expensive but much more reliable. I'll most likely use 900Mhz for distribution to the home so the 2.4/5.7 Ghz stuff in the home won't interfere with the service. I have a chunk of money coming in from a state contract which I can use to get a wireless system established. Hopefully all of the budgets work and I can do it before years end. -Matt -- Matthew S.
