    It is on the roof of the Clarion hotel and is 360 degree coverage. if you can see the clarion from your house you should be fine

    I called IBB last week and sent them an order form - I'm in the Caherdavin area, which they said they knew and that it was possible that I would have a decent signal. They gave me a lead time of two weeks.

    I asked them to perform a LOS (line of sight) test from my house, which they said they would - on installation of the transceiver. If the signal was lossy, they would take the kit and go - no charge.
