I take it back, it is actually a 17" dish (L-Com HG2418DPD) that they rate at 18 dBi. On strict numbers, the best sectors I've found are in the 17-17.5 dBi range, so I just stopped looking. I'll check again.
This is a steeple with minimal visibility allowed, but I may be able to put a yagi inside facing outward. I'll take some measurements and see what might fit. ------------------------------ On Tue, Jul 11, 2017 at 12:03 PM, Steve Jones <[email protected]> wrote: > Can you go outward with a yagi, or stack of them like Jaime always posts? > > On Tue, Jul 11, 2017 at 10:30 AM, Chuck McCown <[email protected]> wrote: > >> Real world result will be lower due to transmission line and combiner >> losses. >> 16” dish at 2.4 G sucks. >> >> I’ll bet you can get a sector that will fit that space that will have >> more gain. >> >> *From:* Christopher Gray >> *Sent:* Tuesday, July 11, 2017 9:20 AM >> *To:* [email protected] >> *Subject:* [AFMUG] Connecting Antennas For Higher Gain? >> >> I have a location with a tall space available for an antenna (About 16" >> wide x 64" tall). >> >> I'm currently running ePMP 2.4 GHz PTP there with a ~16" dish, but I >> would like more gain. >> >> What is the best way to get more gain if I can only go taller?
