We just witnessed a HFT Company trying to link up an 18ghz 13 mile link
through trees. Whoever ran the path for them told them it would work
(which it might, if there was no foliage) Apparently they only look at
ground elevation and that's it. They were using a 20' height on one end
(building roof), with 70' trees in the path. But the crew was out there,
trying their darnedest to link it.

Hey now, if an HFT company wants to try setting up a 73 mile
underground link with airFibers, why discourage them?

Be careful, some HFT company might think you're serious.

Can we make up stories? Because the other day I had put up a 73
mile link, underground, with no antennas. I was getting 33gbps
with <1ns latency. The link was actually running so fast we had to
shut it down because it created a data vacuum on one end of the
link ans pulled dour data center through it. Now we have to hire a
trucking company to move our data center 73 miles back to its
original location. We would have just initiated a data transfer
back, but the vaccuum pulled all our power strips through the link
to the remote site so we lost power to our radio on that end.
Unfortunately, Pat, the night guy was standing next to the radio
just prior to the power loss and only part of him made it to the
other end. Pat will be dearly missed by the company for his
dedication and outstanding customer service skills. he left behind
32 cats and a moped.

Hi Nate -
The contest will be ongoing. We are giving away a pair of
radios each week. There are many that have received so we are
doing this to give feedback to those that are receiving
(related to distances, throughput, applications, etc...).
Which distributor do you have order in with? I will let you
know when they should be receiving. More are being received
each week.
Regards,
Ben

I got a note from Ubnt about a contest to 'Share your
AF-5X story, and win a pair of radios' I would love to
submit a story *!!!!!! IF I COULD GET RADIOS !!!!!!*
Get them into distribution before you start having
contests!!!! I have a standing order with my distributor,
but they say they have no idea when they'll be getting
more radios to fill it.
