We've been on a wind tower for a few years. We're 20' below the tip of
the blades.....just for the climber's sanity. You can imagine how
unnerving it must be to get close to that blade.
I'm not aware of any particular problems with being there.
I don't know how the turbine would affect ptp. I think ken Hohoff
said you could hear a warble in the audible alignment of FSK Canopy,
but it didn't seem to impair service. That's obviously a different
beast from anything we're using today.

What are your experiences providing service in the vicinity of Wind
farms? Source of Problems? Opportunity? I am currently checking
to see if it will interfere with any of our ptp links. I’m unsure
if reflections off these big monopoles will cause any problems.
Naturally, tall hills are an asset to the wind farms and Wisps
alike. Has anyone ever used a wind turbine monopole as a transmit
location?.
