[olug] Question about Motorola Canopy wireless equipment

[Eric Johnson]

Has anyone on the list used or evaluated Motorola's Canopy wireless stuff?

If so, what are the real pros and cons and performance limitations?

Our proposed use would be to provide a telemetry connection for equipment
in the field (literally in the field: agricultural equipment). The common
distance between nodes would be one mile or more and the central base
station could be many miles from the remote locations.
