Sorry, I phrased that part poorly. Are all sectors aligned at 0/120/240 when present, or do they deviate from those bearings? On Thu, Mar 16, 2023, at 08:26, Doug Kingston wrote:
Not all the cell sites have every sector. If a cell site is on the side of a hill or has a large obstruction immediately adjacent, we omit the sector facing into the obstruction as it would not serve any useful purpose. We have tried to depict the available sector in the map on the website, but you may need to zoom in to see that detail. If you have questions about particular sites, Feel free to contact me directly (dpk@randomnotes.org) or mail the netops@ list or ask on our IRC channel.

I've been able to find location info for most of the PSDR sites and antenna height info for some of them. Do they all have sectors pointing 0/120/240 degrees relative to north? Is there anywhere that has EIRP info? I'm trying to see how tall a mast I need to get connected, and whether or not I can even make link for some of the sites. For example it looks like I "only" need a 35' mast for Baldi, but at 28mi away I'm not sure I can get connected reliably, vs Beacon or Capitol Park which are much closer but I'd need at least a 66' mast thanks to local terrain and trees. At the moment I'm using https://ispdesign.ui.com/ (which now has LIDAR data for buildings/trees!) and have also used RadioMobile Deluxe in the past.
