This study sought to answer the following questions:
1. What is the best route that will ensure a clear path for
the line-of-sight of the chosen location for the to-be-
installed Microwave antennas? Consider the Economic

2. How can the researcher tell that the network created was
indeed a protected one?
3. Does the specification of the equipment fit the system
design? How can it tell?
4. What is the over-all reliability of the microwave
system?
