How does the system gain compare between the Aviat and Bridgewave radios? I don't see anything listed on the publicly available spec sheet for the Bridgewave. On Wed, Jan 15, 2020 at 1:29 PM Tim Hardy wrote: > Just so we’re comparing apples to apples, Aviat’s values are typical. > Guaranteed

So, the two radios seem to be pretty similar as far as features and price go (looks like Aviat may be a bit cheaper, but I'd have to look closer at what all is included as far as warranty, etc on each). The main advantages for Aviat seem to be a bit better system gain, and a better/longer track

For what it's worth, we haven't had any problems with our new-ish Bridgewave millimeter links. I'm wondering if Bridgewave actually makes the Navigator themselves anyway though... these radios appear to be more than a little bit similar... http://www.al-wireless.com/zenith-x On Thu, Jan 16,
