Hi, John: Thanks.

Hi, Adam:

The closest high profile switch site to you is Bill Curtice WA8APB at 
1.8 miles.
The profile looks okay:


Your heading to Bill is 280 degrees.
Bill's heading to you is 100 degrees.
Bill has a dish aimed at the North Xenia high profile switch site at 110 
degrees.
Bill is on channel 169 at 20 MHz bandwidth.
See if he shows up on a Wi-Fi scan.

Our network uses channels/frequencies assigned to Amateur Radio, Part 
97, FCC.
You will need a license to join our network.
There are several radio clubs that sponsor license classes and there
is at least one exam administered each month on a weekend or evening.
The license may still be free.
The classes are free.
I think the exams given locally are still free.

Please join our mail list:

Regards,
Chuck Gelm
President, Miami Valley Microwave Alliance.
