I've got my gateway connected and running in Bispham. Not sure what the coverage will be like as it is mounted inside a building in the middle of a high voltage substation, so it might suffer from interference!

It does however work around the boundary of my site, which is why I bought it. Hopefully, as I learn more about antenna I'll be in a position to get it mounted externally and at roof height which might make it more usable to others.

Cheers
