If you really want to see awesome take a look at some of the Andrew/Commscope ETSI Class 4 antennas. 70 db f/b ratio and awesome sidelobe suppression. not cheap.

Hrm, I didn't have any concerns on the Jirous dishes other than needing to be a grand master puzzle solver to assemble them. Jirous does have a new web site out now that sucks a whole lot less. ----- Mike Hammett Intelligent Computing Solutions http://www.ics-il.com From: "Ken Hohhof" <af...@kwisp.com> To: af@afmug.com Sent: Monday, October 19, 2015 11:02:02 AM Subject: Re: [AFMUG] Fiber up the tower with edgepoint thanks Ben So I’m lost, are you talking about antennas for the B11?  Are you saying Jirous is supplying HP 11 GHz antennas?  If that’s correct, I hope the build quality is a giant step up from the 5 GHz antennas I’ve bought from them, they are OK especially for the price, but I would demand a lot more for a licensed band antenna.  I know Jirous has a deep parabolic 3.5 GHz antenna at a higher price point, so maybe for more money they can build them better.   From: Mike Hammett Sent: Monday, October 19, 2015 10:45 AM To: af@afmug.com Subject: Re: [AFMUG] Fiber up the tower with edgepoint thanks Ben   The chocolates? A gentleman never tells.... The radios? $2k/radio with antennas between $400 and $1k, depending on size. There will be Jirous 2', 3' and 4' options. Brink will be the importer and they'll be available through Streakwave and DoubleRadius. I'm not sure if they'll be available through Brink Networks directly. ----- Mike Hammett Intelligent Computing Solutions http://www.ics-il.com From: "Jon Langeler" <jon-ispli...@michwave.net> To: af@afmug.com Sent: Wednesday, October 14, 2015 5:25:32 PM Subject: Re: [AFMUG] Fiber up the tower with edgepoint thanks Ben Estimated pricing?
