I love the safety climbs that are obstructed, the 6 step ladders in mid air and the arrays without any metal to stand on. Just stand on the angle iron. Let an engineer stand on something 3 inches wide for a couple of hours. Tower service people make about 1/2 of what they deserve. These folks are a motivated group for sure.

The older 2G installations around here didn't even have their RRUs installed on the tower itself. They are obviously being phased out now, but since more bands are used often times (here B1+3+7+8+20+28+32), loads of RRUs or multi-band solutions are required.

@@emart343 Eric, I asked that question to compare the number of installations possible without any means of height access with the numbers of installations possible from a bucket truck. We send our buckets trucks (small ones are 90' feet, larger ones are 120', 150', 175', 230' or even 300', and we rent them with our operator and if needed full traffic management package) to follow a crew of 2 installers - they can install 5-10 antennas per week. Basically your answer means they can have 4-5 times productivity increase. That's good to know. Thanks Eric.
