Is that too close to the tower for a dish or is that just the nature
of wireless?
Neither. Gain is gain. If the dish gives you 10db then it gives you
10db. Maybe something is goofy with that unit or maybe that dish is
bent out of whack.
As David mentioned, if you're reading the signal from the AP, it could
be ATPC turning down the SM tx power.

I upgraded a customer to 2.4 ePMP last week that was about .6 miles
from the tower. The signal with just an integrated SM was -67 so I
decided to use one of Chuck's dishes for ePMP but only got an extra 2
to 3 db improvement. The last time (only time) I used the dish I got
8 to 10 db improvement but was about 2 miles from the tower. Is that
too close to the tower for a dish or is that just the nature of wireless?
