Re: [WISPA] 24 dbi Atlas Fox
With a rootena, at 7 miles, sounds like George is over power limits. But take note, 5.3G can be within limits to reach 7 miles. You can actually reach 10 miles (with little fade margin) and be within the limits. It does however require a 32 db dish, and a -2 power level to be legal.

Re: [WISPA] 24 dbi Atlas Fox
The big delimna for years, is that Trango has the unique advantage of Dual Pol on the fly. If you give up Dual Pol flexibilty, whats the point in using Trango, that's their main advantage. Sure the Rootenna are cheap, we use them for our Mikrotik/StarOS CPEs. I suggest the MTI as a match for Trango, because its the only one available at a reasonable price. Even Trango's model (without the back) goes for $300. I'm not that big a fan anymore of the MTI panels, they break way to easilly. I attribute it to the overly hard plastic, that does not absorb shock. I also think MTIs are to expensive, for retail QTY1, often around $300 also. But in Quantity the MTIs can be gotten pretty cheaply.

Re: [WISPA] 24 dbi Atlas Fox
The Pac Wireless 5 gig rootennas are only 19db gain. What I like best about all of the antenna enclosures is the lack f cabling, just a short pigtail from the radio card to the antenna port. Also with star you can adjust the power of the card. Default power is what we use mostly. No need to increase the power under most circumstance. George Marlon K.

Re: [WISPA] 24 dbi Atlas Fox
Those MTI's are nice looking product. Nice price too. Have you checked out the pac wireless 5 gig rootennas yet? They are working great for me and they are cheap.

(so not indorsing or recommending this idea) An Atlas Fox, mounted inside a MTI 24 dbi Dual Pol antenna w/ stock radio case back, and a custom mod to bypass internal antenna and jumper to the ext antenna connectors, would be less expensive than both a base Fox5800 unit and the 5830SU, and give us 16 more additional DB, which would make it a fantastic combination for a high end business or residential CPE able to survive the noise, upgradable to OFDM, and easy to mount. But most importantly, it would only be one radio CPE type to stock to cover all needs, allowing it to be easier to make quantity orders. In qty 25+, MTI w/ case $245 (maybe a little more with import charges) Atlas Fox $149. Pigtail Jumpers: $15 Total: $409. It would take more time to hack(build), but it would save time by not having to muck with the dish. So why is Trango not doing this yet?
