And yet I’ll bet the power is specified in horsepower. Maybe that’s a metric horse?

The 1.6L engine in my Hyundai is pretty standard for compact cars these days, but that's less than 100 cubic inch. Did they ever make an engine for a car that small when they measured them in CI? When I think of it in terms of CI, I would seem like I'm driving 4 weed trimmers down the street....but it actually feels pretty spunky. ------ Original Message ------ From: "Bill Prince" <[email protected]> To: [email protected] Sent: 7/22/2016 1:38:07 PM Subject: Re: [AFMUG] Metrolinq For me, 1 liter = 1 quart when I don't want to think too hard. bp <part15sbs{at}gmail{dot}com> On 7/22/2016 10:24 AM, [email protected] wrote: 454 Chevy is almost 2 gallons displacement.... Liter I have not got memorized. I think a 12 oz can of soda is about 350 something. Just looked it up, 354, so like a Chevy 454 but 354 instead. I wonder if that will stick... 2.2 lbs per kg that one is easy.

I would hope most folks have them memorized. 231 is a bit more obscure (cubic inches per gallon) I still have a hard time doing the F to C. I know the ratio is 9/5 - 5/9 but the add/subtract 32 bit before/after the conversion is something I have to futz with. Normally I use a known conversion like 20-68 degrees and then play with the formula until it yields the correct answer and then I know it for a few minutes until the next time.

We are seeing -55/-59 on our 450m link and on our 250m link we are seeing -43/-47 signal (and had to reduce power on 60ghz on one side.. .i.e. we are not aligned perfectly ) So I can say affirmatively there is no 'missing power' it has to do with alignment... :) Faisal Imtiaz Snappy Internet & Telecom 7266 SW 48 Street Miami, FL 33155 Tel: 305 663 5518 x 232 Help-desk: (305)663-5518 Option 2 or Email: [email protected] ---------------------------------------------------------------- From: "Stefan Englhardt" <[email protected]> To: [email protected] Sent: Thursday, July 21, 2016 3:14:16 PM Subject: Re: [AFMUG] Metrolinq Do you get the calculated rx-power?

We have been using the larger units (Circular cones) for links 250m to 450m successfully.. aiming them with the shipping brackets is a whole another challenge.. I am very happy to the the LR brackets available and those should go long ways is aligning longer links. .

We tried a 900' link and couldn't get the 60Ghz side to work. We were able to move one end and get it down to 600' and have a 60GHz link at -55 but that is 10-15db below where it should be. It's working, but at this point I wouldn't use it for anything over 500' or so. On Thu, Jul 21, 2016 at 10:40 AM, Stefan Englhardt <[email protected]> wrote: We’ve only dfs bands in 5 GHz.
