We also had problems with jirous 2 foot dishes not having very good signal
no matter how hard we aimed a 3.8 mile link. No problems with 4 foot jirous
or ubnt 35db dishes. I have not tried 3 foot for jirous yet though.

We noticed the Jirous 2' antenna is not that good and will be further off
than the UBNT dishes.
the Jirous 3' and 4' dishes seem to be much better.

Ah yeah, that makes sense... I forget about the duplexer. Not that it really
changes anything anyway with these, it'll just throw the signal calculations
off a bit. For licensing purposes, I figure you're generally better off erring
on the side of higher output power. The AF11 link we have up
Matt, leave your gain at 35 dB and set cable loss to 1db. After that, aim
to what the ideal signal shown in the gui. You're at least 6db away from a
perfect link still so I'd look into that if I were you. We have links at 6
to 7 miles with better signal than you have at 2.6 miles. Using same
It's actually not excessive.
If you read the manual it says the duplexer is = to 1db loss and you're
going to have at least that in the jumpers as well.
I however always set the cable loss to zero and do the math for my max EIRP
or 18dbm. It's just easier when looking at it to know that there
Does UBNT say to use 2db cable loss? that seems a little excessive to me...
But yeah, I'd say alignment is either a bit off or you have some
obstructions... you should have better signal than that, at that distance.

Why is that? They are 35dB antennas.
17 + 35 - 2 = 50, which is right where we are.

I guess I missed the original e-mail. What power level and signal are
we questioning here?

Yeah, but you have a much stronger link - you're at -48 with 17dbm Tx Power.
