Nothing magic about our designs, we have good test data but most importantly we do a very heavy duty hot dip galvanization. They ought to last forever.

I found that 3M made some heat shrink tubing that just fit over the size of tubing I was using. After heat shrinking the stick, we would dip the ends in "plastidip". Never had a leak. I wonder if you just needed to hand make a couple dipole or patch array antennas, if dipping them in plastidip wouldn't be a decent option. Obviously it would be labor and time intensive for production, but for a couple one-offs, why not?

They have an array of metal circles on a board connected to each other by traces. What about a cheaper external antenna?

From: Adam Moffett Sent: Friday, September 30, 2016 10:29 AM To: Animal Farm Subject: [AFMUG] I want a "Stinger like" antenna for Wimax CPE I want to narrow the radiation pattern on Wimax CPE in order to reduce interference. Higher gain is a bonus, but mostly I want to tune out interference from other base stations and thereby improve CINR. Right now all I've got is I can put an external antenna on with coax jumpers. A dish with a significantly narrower pattern than the integrated panel is $120-$140 from KP Performance, plus the cost of the coax jumpers and the labor to seal them. I'm really missing the Canopy stingers and reflectors right now. If I could slip something on for $50 I'd be all over it like white on rice. I'd also just settle for a cheaper external antenna.
