[WISPA] spectrum analysis - 5dBm interference at 5785

2009-10-12 Thread Randy Cosby
Over the weekend we started getting complaints about a bad linktests for all customers on an old trango AP site. I've tried finding a cleaner channel, but am not having much luck getting good linktests up there. This is one of the first sites I built, and use a couple OSBridge 5Gxi radios to

On same tower That's really hot I'd also do sanity check on your anylizer to ensure you are seeing what you think you are seeing Teoradios on desk usually don't get reading like that and if it were real you ap wouldn't work at all Scott Carullo Brevard Wireless (321) 205-1100 x102 On Oct

I can say that with two MT swivel antennas blank range (touching each other) they report 0dbm - not positive values... Josh Luthman Office: 937-552-2340 Direct: 937-552-2343 1100 Wayne St Suite 1337 Troy, OH 45373 When you have eliminated the impossible, that which remains, however improbable,

I would definitely start with equipment on site. That has to be an anomaly or something very close to the sense antenna acting up. With free space path loss, any signal arriving from afar and measured at 5 dBm would be killing every bird and bee in the path. You might be overloading the PA.

Randy, You cant go by that spectrum analyzer. Something is wrong. Most receivers can't handle 5dbm pumped into them without killing them. -B- Randy Cosby writes: Over the weekend we started getting complaints about a bad linktests for all customers on an old trango AP site.

Quite likely you're right. I tried shutting off the trango AP's with no luck - same bad spectrum analysis. I'm next going to go on site and do linktests on the AP's with the backhaul off. My suspicion is the backhaul is bad - at least the spectrum analysis, but it is potentially the source
