          Yes, but given I wouldn't want to climb a 350' tower in a thunderstorm, I don't expect my ISP to either.

                        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
