After having given up on the prospect of getting RBI at wai-iti valley Rd wakefield last year, I checked again just now and it looks like VF are predicting patchy coverage in the area :) This year (maybe)

I currently have a self-installed Yagi and Netcomm 3g router connected up which gives me BB capability pointed toward Motueka. of course this is a very expensive option at $50 for 3gb and would V much like to have an alternative.

So to the question: Does anyone know where I can look for info about locations of forthcoming RBI towers in my area? Then I can plan for what I'm going to try next
I'm sure I wont be lucky enough to find out that 'inwoods lookout' is one of them - I can see that from my garden but its only 2G :(

Cheers
james
