If I remember right the biggest spectral efficiency problem with the AF-11x is that it uses both polarizations yet only gets the throughput of a single pol link. Could be difficult to license if you can’t get both polarizations. Good news, if you’re successful getting the license, you should be able to modify the license and upgrade to a true 1.3+ Gbps full duplex radio from SIAE, Aviat, Cambium, etc. Bad news, if you’re pushing the distance such that you can’t run 1024QAM or better most of the time, you may not meet the FCC minimum spectral efficiency requirement.

When you license 56MHz of spectrum you use the 80MHz channel plan but there isn't 24MHz of unused spectrum sitting there... it gets used up pretty quickly for other paths, etc. So moral of the story... don't do that. <https://atheral.co/wp-content/uploads/Atheral-Logo-Vertical-Grad-150px-x-86px.png> Daniel White Co-Founder & Managing Director of Operations phone: +1 (702) 470-2766 direct: +1 (702) 470-2770 3172 N Rainbow Blvd PMB 20394 Las Vegas, Nevada 89108 <https://www.facebook.com/getatheral/> <https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCpPZv-EsGCj8LXfzylwCrjQ> <https://www.linkedin.com/company/atheral/> Seth Mattinen wrote on 1/8/20 09:54: On 1/8/20 8:36 AM, Kurt Fankhauser wrote: if you have an 80mhz channel and are running radios in 56mhz channel width can u just put a 2nd link up and split them up to the two 40mhz? No, that's not allowed. You need to license two 40MHz channels. -- AF mailing list [email protected] <mailto:[email protected]> http://af.afmug.com/mailman/listinfo/af_af.afmug.com
