The antenna has built-in heaters to help keep the snow off, too bad they don't offer one with an additional heat sink on the back for warmer areas.<br /><br />This will be a game changer for off-grid locations. Now you'll be able to build a home just about anywhere and be able to work from there with the same connectivity as an urban location.Bizmarkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05077859161506279962noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6120586935905234915.post-4298195070620367212021-02-23T07:12:13.628-06:002021-02-23T07:12:13.628-06:00watch Joe Rogan's latest interview with Elon M...watch Joe Rogan's latest interview with Elon Musk (#1609 on Feb 11) wherein he takes a few minutes and explains what Starlink is designed for and how it will help rural and remote access - what it is and what it is not.

We do pretty good with our rural wimax service with 18-20 down and 4 up, but we'd like "big city" speeds with low latency. It's the latency that concerns me.
