Okay so a little knowledge goes a long way :-)
The MSE value is fine. There are charts in the manual that describe required MSE per modulation. MSE is something like SNR, but different. Anyways your value is good. ATPC is a great tool. Number one failure of any radio is related to the TX part of the radio… so the lower the TX power, the less stress on vital components. I absolutely recommend ATPC, on any vendors radio (assuming it is implemented well) to extend the overall life of the radio head.

I had never turned on ATPC, but when it was out of alignment one side was -54 and still at full modulataion, so I turned it on with the target 50-55, TX power is now staying at 8. I wonder though if that stress value is something I should be concerned about, I dont know what is good or bad. I like keeping things neat on the rf side where I can, having that extra 10db power seems reasonable for fade, but I dont want to be cooking a chipset doing so -- If you only see yourself as part of the team but you don't see your team as part of yourself you have already failed as part of the team. --- This email has been checked for viruses by Avast antivirus software. https://www.avast.com/antivirus
