Radios just gone quiet? Something between the antenna and the radio mucking things up?
Probably not practical to take them down and put them on a bench kit? ----- Mike Hammett Intelligent Computing Solutions http://www.ics-il.com ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jaime Solorza" <[email protected]> To: "Animal Farm" <[email protected]> Sent: Sunday, March 8, 2015 11:22:05 PM Subject: [AFMUG] 18ghz question Targeted RSL is -42 at 4.08 miles Tx power at 14db. Should be 14.5dB ....three different companies have aligned these dishes before I was asked to try and get the link closer to targeted figure. On this one -53.1 is best I got. A bit better than others but not where they want. I took both antennas completed off paths and started over. Got it to above level. Made sure it was not sidelobe. These radios are about 6 years old Dragonwave...the client says they were in mid 40s according to records. What can cause such a difference if alignment is not an issue? Jaime Solorza
