Really? As far as I have seen from the spectrum analysis's the TT's are really dirty signal, as for the YDI's that was by suggestion from my boss but personally I had chosen the hyperlink amps because that's the antennas we use and we have been told really excellent things about them and there spectrums are very defined.
I'm planning to be selling a lot of things soon some TT amps, hyperlink amps (ones that are over our EIRP limit) some other things as well like some antennas and yagi's that we no longer use because we're using AB Total's from now on. Also about 10 SmartAnt 7.5 omni's, that we are upgrading to our new hyperlink 15dbi antennas :)

Interesting that you are changing from Teletronics AMPs to
YDI. I started with YDI amps and had nothing but major problems.
The signal just wasn't punching through and everything seemed
under powered. We replaced them with Teletronics SmartAMPs and
all the problems disappeared.
Hey, maybe we can trade some amps. I've still got some of the
YDIs that I would happily trade for some TT amps.. :-)

Subject: RE: [smartBridges] WISP survey
I have 250 - 300 Clients about 150-175 of those are smarts the rest are
teletronics (currently in progress of switching these one at a time to SB's)
My APs were lucent orinoco's and aironets all are now switched to Airpoint
Pro outdoors with tele amps that im changing to YDI amps cause there is less
noise with them and im also using Hyperlink 15db omni's and 20db 120
sectorials, my ap's have between 10 and 30 clients on each. And all is
working well so far but the automated RTS AND FRAG would be nice if SB could
get it finalized.

We've got about a dozen so far, with the list of site
surveys stacking up. It's crazy busy.
We're using SB AP indoor units with TT AMPs and 14db 90 degree
sector antennas. We were using all TT gear, but had problem after
problem. Once we switched to the SmartBridges AirPoint and went
to a Maxrad antenna all of our problems went away and clients that
we were constantly fine tuning we had to go put on smaller antennas
so their RSSI would come down slightly below 100%. Once we did all
that their links were solid and their speed increased.
Clients are using AirBridge Indoor except for 2 using the ABO. We're
going to all AirBridge Outdoor now with either a 15db or 19db antenna.
Residential clients with one computer just plug the Cat-5 right into
their system and use PPTP to log in. Clients wanting access with more
than one computer use a Linksys Cable/DSL router and PPPoE logs them
in. HotSpot clients log in through the MikroTik HotSpot service.
