Looking for a tower

I've got only one option for internet besides dial-up, which I'm on now, and
Wireless. There's a WISP with an antenna about 10 miles from my place, but
I'm in a big hole. From the topo maps we looked at, I'd have to go 120ft to
get line of sight to his tower. I'm looking for recommendations for a
tower that size that can handle one of those 24db directional antennas. Are
there vendors that specifially supply that market? I called a Rohn dealer
and about fell out of my chair with the prices they were quoting me. If I
could have the whole thing installed for about 2G, I'd be a happy man. Can
it be done?

Please remove the obvious from my e-mail address to reply.

Thanks in advance!

FWIW, how about checking some ham radio dealers for towers?

Get a big helium balloon.
But you better call the FAA first.

Check out what legal requirements you got to meet to build a tower.
Could be a headache . For example the city building inspector would be a
good start. Listen to > http://www.wirelesstechradio.com/

Check this week show on a guy who built a tower . Cost him $20,000.00.
