Your plan sounds good.
We have a guy take the radios and a laptop up to the third floor of our
building where we have LOS to multiple APs of ours of multiple technologies.
He'll make them associate, evaluate signal levels, run some traffic over it,
and if it's good, set it back to defaults.
I've converted my cat to being a mobile hot spot. I used a couple of UBNT
Picos, 4 9 volt batteries and changed out the firmware with DD-WRT. Have it
all on him like saddle bags. He roams the neighborhood accepting online
signups. The range is okay, he only goes about a half a mile to a mile
That is just too funny!!!

It always best to be pleasant. Difusses the situation and the customer
is more likely to learn a little of what you can and can not do for him.

Thanks for all the suggestions. We do field testing of new APs and such
in our boom trucks, but I'm thinking more along the lines of bench
testing radios in an isolated environment. We have a company nearby
with 2.4GHz cameras that eat up 2/3 of the spectrum. From my desk, I
get about -85dBm

If you can pass data to your tower at -85, the card is good.
And, you have two know values to look at, your tower and the camera system.
Looks to me like you can do real world testing rather than hoping the
bench test is accurate.

Highly doubtful that it'll happen, but it would probably be more efficient
if we took back all broadcast spectrum and used it for FWBIA - or whatever

Yes but the sat companies used to charge extra if you wanted the local
channels. Now, I'm sure they just include the cost in their price. It's
fine with me as long as the customers don't mind the cost being passed
on. I'm certainly not going to foot the bill.

I see a video provider staying in the mix, but providing both traditional
channels in a transition period that could be 10 - 15 years and onDemand
content that greatly increases in use. This would replace DVRs because
they could force you to watch commercials instead of letting you fast
What do you mean your mean your box for the NS2M didn't have an offer for a
free tee shirt? They now are supposed to have an offer for a free vacation
to Hawaii. Must have been an error with your box.
