Rex & Mary,
The subscription is $60/month for the "home" data rate of 128 kbps upload and 500 to 700 kpbs download. Higher speeds can be had for more money, of course.
It doesn't work well with moderate to heavy foliage cover. The cost of the Datastorm system, which mounts on the trailer, was prohibitive, and the flexibility of the tripod system for setting it up in a clearing was attractive (cost really did come before flexibiity, though).
I've gotten the setup time down to anywhere from 5 to 15 minutes, mostly dependent on how fast I can get the tripod plumb and how quickly Sharon wants to get on the Internet.
