Subject: Update to Internet access on Palomar Mountain
In 2007, we ran a survey of internet access methods. Since then, I get frequent requests for updates on available services. This is not a promotion nor do I benefit from this information, but just an update: I now use Western Broadband (http://westb.net/) and have been very happy with them. Very reliable, inexpensive ($40/month for basic service which is 5 mb/sec – but I test faster than that), I think they are the best option if you have line of sight. They use a small (~12″) dish that must have line-of-sight to one of their mountain top repeaters and will come to your location and determine if you can get signal.
