Cell Tower Question

Oct 19, 2005 2 Replies

I hope this is the right forum for this.



I live about 100 feet from a SBC cell tower. The tower is about



120 ft high. I have observed three types of lines going into the building complex/power station. One it a regular voltage power line. Second, is a regular phone line, that I suppose techs use to contact home office. Third is a fiber optics line.

I was wondering is there anything I could tap into as far as either getting Internet access? Would I still need an antenna for picking up transmissions from the tower? Would it be better to splice into the fiber optic cable?



What would that cable contain? Are there other forums that would have more info?



Thanks for your help.

alt.cellular.cingular would be more appropriate.

Presumably Cingular.

You need a Cingular wireless device and data plan.

That'a a joke, right?
