Well how about what not to use, ha. We deployed a 30 db Poynting as a test at a new backhaul, readings weren't that great let it run for a few weeks and it got worse (they catch a bunch of wind), replaced with a 26db Andrew from stock and picked up 4-5 db on both ends. I'm looking for some

For my PTP links I am replacing grids with dishes. Much lower noise and more stable signal levels. I have use PacWireless grids with good success. Only issue is that several have apparently had water get inside the element. Pat O'Connor wrote: Just looking to see what everyone else is

I'm using a lot of the Pac Wireless grids but only cause they're cheap. If I had the cash I'd go with a dish, not a grid. They work find but in some installs they may as well be an omni for all the RF they scatter. Bob- -Original Message- From: wireless-boun...@wispa.org

You're talking about an external antenna. I can't imagine even a 2' dish at a customer's house. Josh Luthman Office: 937-552-2340 Direct: 937-552-2343 1100 Wayne St Suite 1337 Troy, OH 45373 The secret to creativity is knowing how to hide your sources. --- Albert Einstein On Mon, Jan 25, 2010

I use the Pac grids with the feed that looks the same as the solid dish feed, not the little metal reflector. The reflectors keep falling off in wind, birds taking them, etc (we pulled FOUR out of a birds nest after the client saw the bird take it). This client only lost 3, we assume one is from

But I'm looking at that Backfire dish. Looks good. Grids are okay, I just have issues with the splatter. On the flip side, I have two CPEs connected to a backhaul grid WAY off its path and towards the backside just cause it was the best signal I could get. Bob- -Original Message-
