For clarity, we are planning an AF5X link on 34dB slants On these towers are Rocket sectors H/V
I was curious what, if any additional S/N might be realized since they are not on tbe same polarity. Very little if any it would seem, and probably not enough to make any real difference Jerry > On Mar 7, 2015, at 6:39 PM, Ken Hohhof <[email protected]> wrote: > > Yes, all true. > > But I thought Jerry was talking about a V/H Rocket interfering into a +/- > Rocket, where both are dual pol. > > From: George Skorup (Cyber Broadcasting) > Sent: Saturday, March 07, 2015 8:17 PM > To: [email protected] > Subject: Re: [AFMUG] Typical improvement when using 45* slant > > I thought the whole idea of slant was chain equalization and certain types of > multipath are handled better.
