I recently made a trip to Dallas and along the way and while there I =
wondered:
Surely someone else has thought about and investigated the use of =
these--
1. All along the interstate are these long (75-85 ft), slim poles with =
several
big lights on top.
2. The power companies everywhere are using tall (75-100 ft) concrete =
line supports.
3. Celluar (or PCS) antennas are everywhere on 75 -85 ft poles.I can =
stand
anywhere in Dallas and count at least 6 of these towers.

All of these should be mass produced by now and should be cost =
effective.=20
Anybody have any information?
