Kurt you might want to add 10db more to that signal I find out that 
towercoverage isnt far good at giving good signal calculation at all. Instead 
of -65 your looking at -75

Yeah... with LOS, it *should* work, but I wouldn't even like doing that. With 
NLOS, it might work, but I would be more surprised if it did work than if it 
didn't. And if there are trees involved, even if it works now, it very likely 
won't work six months from now...

Not just no but hell no.  150 megs isn't going to happen.  I wouldn't even 
count on it associating.

I did a 15 mile shot and I was a lot higher on both sides maybe half an hour 
from where you're at.

found another site with better looking profile, 100 foot higher elevation on

ubnt doesn't make a product that's going to work good for that situation... The 
only thing that might work better than AF5XHD for that is going to be AF-2X, or 
maybe AF-3X, but the chances of getting 150mbps out of either of those is 
pretty slim.


Now, as far as if AF5XHD's with 2' dishes will work... who knows, it depends on 
how much the trees actually block it, which probably isn't really possible to 
accurately predict. You're pretty much going to have to try it to know what it 
will do, but personally, I wouldn't do it unless I really had to.

everything about that email just wants to make me ask why-why oh why..



I would use https://link.ubnt.com/ to find the product that would work best

Trying to do a NLOS shot with AF5XHD's thats 25 miles (see attached topo). Only 
have done 10-12 mile shots before that are NLOS. I have had good success doing 
the 10 mile shots skimming tree tops but not sure if the added distance is 
going to drastically change that. According to TowerCoverage this link is 
showing it will work. Can't use 3 foot dishes due to wind loading only able to 
use 2 footers. Anyone think this should work? Only need about 150mbps each way.
