Jeremy, Since you mention StarOS, I have to ask: why not just use the Lucaya gear? If you skip the amps, the X2000 would let your climber take up a replacement radio and change two RF cables and one ethernet cable. (for two radios) Just curious why you seem to reject the StarOS preferred

Do the link budgets including cable loss. XR cards are 600mW cards, so more output than the amps originally proposed. I have XR cards on the ground, 150' of LMR600 to antennae at the top and the links all work as predicted. I just can't see putting any kind of amp at the top when you can do it al

David, Compex aka r52(h) and xr5 are atheros 5413 for sure. But the xr5 well outperforms like you said - more so to do with the "wireless stuff" in the card I am sure. On 6/19/09, David E. Smith wrote: > Scott Carullo wrote: >> My first advice is ditch the amp, not necessary and most likely ill
