For FDD systems that require a minimum frequency separation between Transmitters and receivers, one should always follow a standard high/low frequency plan. In fact for efficient use of the band for all parties, the high/low plan should be followed religiously. Violating the established high/

To my knowledge the radios and dishes have enough isolation that H/L match at a site is not necessary unless you're almost pointing in the same direction with those dishes (or have a TX frequency at one site overlapping a RX) . The opposite polarity increases the isolation so you have even less wor

I am having some 11 GHz links coordinated and the draft PCNs they sent me have one site high on one link and low on the other link. They are however different sub bands, and one is HPOL and the other is VPOL. Does this make it OK? I could probably do one of the links in 18 GHz. I had interna
