take a 900MHz radio there and put it in spectrum analyzer mode. show them you have nothing in that band. WISPA Wants You!

[WISPA] 5 GHz Canopy and 900 MHz
I'm guessing the chance is about as close to zero as you can get, but... I have some 5 GHz Canopy on a water tower and they are having communications issues on their 900 MHz SCADA system. Their solution is to unplug my stuff for an hour or two to see if it goes away. Their problems started the same time I lost GPS on my CMM... I'm assuming mother nature. I changed out a 5.2 GHz link with a 5.7 GHz link and put in a SyncPipe Parasitic. Not exactly anything that could interfere with 900 MHz that I can think of. Of course their vendor doesn't see it my way. What chance is it that I'm to blame? -- - Mike Hammett Intelligent Computing Solutions http://www.ics-il.com WISPA Wants You!

Re: [WISPA] 5 GHz Canopy and 900 MHz
Pretty slim chance it's your AP. Slight possibility it's the syncpipe. Could also be some other source recently installed that's hosing the SCADA and the CMM GPS - Jerry -Original Message- From: wireless-boun...@wispa.org [mailto:wireless-boun...@wispa.org] On Behalf Of Mike Hammett Sent: Tuesday, August 10, 2010 8:07 AM To: WISPA General List Subject: [WISPA] 5 GHz Canopy and 900 MHz I'm guessing the chance is about as close to zero as you can get, but...

Re: [WISPA] 5 GHz Canopy and 900 MHz
Do you try to scan the 900 band to see if something new is there like smart meters or something?

Re: [WISPA] 5 GHz Canopy and 900 MHz
I had a similar issue except it worked in my benefit. I gave them IP connectivity for their SCADA, they waived my tower fee, and all are happy. They never did find the issue with the 900MHz but all is well.
