I replaced a NanoBridge M5 with a RocketM5 and a Jirous 24 dbi dish last week, I actually got a slight improvement (~2db) over what the Nanobridge had been doing (which could just be because it's mounted differently). But anyway, I just tested it on various channels, and I'm not seeing any significant difference on 5.2ghz. on 5225, It was 1-2 db weaker than what I saw on 5735, but 5840 was slightly weaker than 5225, so I'm not sure how much that means... none of the channels are particularly clean (this link normally lives in the DFS band).
