The family and I were at OMSI's Hancock Field Station last summer at
44.919488,-120.425987, and it has wifi backhauled somehow or other.  I
asked about it and I think I remember them saying that it was
microwave backhauled into Madras or something.  You might call OMSI
and ask them who they are using.
