Well, some questions were answered, but they just threw up more questions

The stuff I've got isn't the best (it was cheap, the ideal stuff costs over £6k), so it needs "line of sight" in order to work. Unfortunately there are a few more obstacles in the way at Snetterton than I remember, particularly when heading towards the end of the Revett straight (industrial buildings and the small matter of a bridge).
So, I've decided to buy a bigger mast, and hang aerials off that.
It may happen that there'll be some drop-outs at certain points of the track, but it won't be the end of the world - there are other cameras that can be switched to. I'm working on a few backup plans as well.
