Thanks for all of the feedback.
For clarification, the LMR400 cable was 140
feet and was the only cable that connected the analyzer to the antenna.
I am familiar with the IDU and ODU
configuration of the Redline equipment.
This test was to see what 5.8 RF was
present. The
I think what you thought was RG6 was actually RG59 - Redline is a pretty clean platform so I don't think too many issues will arise from the deployment of that platform in your area.

The Redline is a two piece radio. It does not send 5 Ghz up the cable.
It sends an IF frequency which is lower and more forgiving as well as

Go to the online calculator and figure up the losses on your cable. Be sure
to set the freq at 5800 mhz.
I'd not even count the connectors as loss, they are usually in the .1 to .5
range. But for a survey adding 1dB of loss per connector is safe.
As I read this

With 140 ft of LMR-400 at 5.8GHz, the loss is about 15db. With a good
antenna topside, you might get some usable results, but not good

For the RG6, I can't find any loss specs for freq. above 900MHz. At
900MHz, the loss is about 10db for 140 ft. Extrapolating that to
5.8GHz, I
Cliff,
Are you sure the first 140' was RG6? I think that is 75 ohm cable so
that
may be a problem, if it was something else it still might have too much loss
at 5.8 GHz to get any signal to the SA. You may be on to something with the
adapters, if they were just using good quality N-Type
Another thought is maybe it was alvarion gear or some thing similar that
uses a frequency converter at the antenna.
I think they get fed with a small cable.

Redline itself, does not have spectrum analasys capability, from what I
understood.
Generally Redline user can use it to see if their radio can work well on a
channel, by looking for loss, and what channel worksbest. but the fact that
the Redline smashes through 5.8G fine does not mean that
25 matches
