I like this method of uptime calculation rather than the old methods commonly used. ----- Mike Hammett Intelligent Computing Solutions Midwest Internet Exchange The Brothers WISP ----- Original Message ----- From: "Nate Burke" <[email protected]> To: "Animal Farm" <[email protected]> Sent: Wednesday, February 24, 2021 4:43:54 PM Subject: [AFMUG] 80ghz reliability in Rain One of our distributors is trying to push us into an 80ghz link for a 1.7 mile hop. Siklu says that 2' dishes on each side will have no rain problems in our Rain zone 'K'. I have trouble believing that. Our AF24 link that is in place now Fades during rain events. An AF60 link we have at 0.4 miles also fades. What are real world experiences with 80ghz? How hard is it to align 80ghz dishes, especially at that distance? We once had to align a 24ghz 3' Trango dish that had no fine adjustments, and it took almost 2 hours because the signal would change with every turn of the UBolt. Same with the AF60 radio, but that mount bracket is a pile of garbage anyway. I see they sell a fine adjustment bracket for the AF60 now. -- AF mailing list [email protected] http://af.afmug.com/mailman/listinfo/af_af.afmug.com
