From the Waterman Tower we picked up:

Duncraig.NET
Signal: 50%
Notes: Our dish pointing at the Access Point would have been around 45º degrees off from the feed horn, and we still had a good enough connection.
CTNet
Signal: 30%
Notes: Based in Kingsley and having the Hill in Duncraig blocking the L.O.S. we didn't get a connection. But it did pop up for a little bit, enough to have stumbled it.
DVNet
Signal: 50%
Notes: Guessing the location this one. It's in DoubleView some where. (Just pointed and hoped, we found it)

 

Test Point 1 was from this location, so is all the images from here are below.
