does weak FEC or strong FEC impact the workload on the radio any different? This link was overengineered a bit for margin. The manual only shows signal values to modulation unless im looking at the wrong manual. It says I can hit the full 366 with a -62 Would it be pushing my luck to raise that ATPC to a loser value, lowering the overall output power?
The default correction limit is 10, so Im assuming I would need to increase that to the maximum -12, does this mean output power would not be able to go any lower than 6?
