well we go them to work but I am not sure what the trick was. We disabled all of the 5.7 channels and moved the channel again from 5500 to 5520 and they linked up. Changed channel to 5790 and disabled all the 5.4 channels and it linked right up. They sat for almost 5 hours prior to that and never connected. Not sure what we did but they now have 78MB down by 26Mb up and in 8x/8x stable. Gonna move to them tonight and see what happens but we have a backup link there just in case.

Not that I know of. We put up our first PTP450 link last week; an 8.9 mile shot using 28 dBi panels from MTI. I "eyeballed" the link master, then tuned in the link slave a couple days later. Signal is coming in at -57 to -58, and typically running at 8x/8X (have tx power set to 17 dBm at both ends). Went back today to fine tune the link master, but only got another 1/2 dBm out of it; I could have stayed home. Aggregate throughput is in the 90-95 Mbps range. bp On 10/21/2014 9:22 AM, Craig House via Af wrote: > We have put up our first pair of backhaul 450 radios today 5.5 mile wink > signal before was a -51 on both ends dishes did not get repointed just > replace the radios > The radio see each other at a -59 signal but they will not connect up says > that the BER is too high > This is from a water tower to a 600 foot communications tower that is easy > line of sight from 40 feet lower on each end > Is there a special trick to making these radios connect? > > Sent from my iPhone
