Re: [WISPA] SR9's
Ok, I'll have to admit when I first got my Trango 900 I was a bit disapointed. It was not a fault of Trango, it was just my expectations of how much foilage could be penetrated. They have been solid radios, just lower throughput and not as penetratable as what I was hoping for. on the other other hand my RF Linx 2.4g to 900MHz UDC's made me a happy camper. I've had a link that is about 1 mile that is almost all trees and tree tops in the way. 5 megs across this link. 3 years running. Of course this is yagi to yagi PtP shot, which helps quite abit. I bought some 900 Yagi's to use, but only have one in service. Guess it will be interesting to see what we can do with these new cards. George cw wrote: I have almost no clue. We've had little time to play with them and I have no frame of reference. We've never used 900MHz before. The throughput is full 802.11 at links in the high eighties. There doesn't appear to be much foliage penetration as close as a mile. At an eighth mile, we can get a solid neg 82 through solid jungle with wide beam antennas. We're going to have to find narrower beam antennas that don't weigh four hundred pounds before we can figure out much more. 900 roos are coming out soon but I have no idea how tight the broadcast is.

Just got my 3 radios, but I ordered and payed for them the last week of June.
