<div>Hi all.</div>What's the best value in rural service? I'm just north of the US border, 14 miles, off highway #59. There is wifi service all around me, but not "to" me without at least a 60' tower. I'm looking at Explornet satellite service and really don't like their contract. Are there smarter options?<div>

<div><br></div><div>Or does someone have an "in" with a free standing 60' - 80' tower and installation info. that might make the project more reasonable? </div><div><br></div>
