<div dir="ltr"><div><div>Well, this does certainly answer a rather burning question I've had about scattering small rooftop antenna rigs on other people's rooftops around town. Thank you.<br><br></div>Ben, could speak to any expectations you've encountered from your insurance carrier about antenna mounting equipment that can be used? That is, has your carrier indicated whether they tend to prefer clients only using off-the-shelf tripods, brackets, lightning grounding units, etc, or if they've shown some tolerance for DIY gear?<br>

Subject: Re: liability insurance for rooftop wireless installations?<br>
<br>
NYCwireless has installation liability insurance. I think its under $300/yr<br>
and you can do it all online.<br>
<br>
Ben, do you have the details you can forward on to Anthony? I forget which<br>
company we used...<br>
