Effective Tower!
Whats with all of you and this thing against Amps SO WHAT if
it amps the noise the SNR is the same so its fine, the point is getting the S
to a point that its hearable otherwise amps would be nonsense and no one would
buy em and they wouldn't sell them anymore. The fact is you can't get away
from noise so make the signal as high as you can to hear it you think u can
hear a 35mw lucent from 1 mile away on an ap with no antenna on the lucent and
actually surf well with a few lil obstructions without any whatsoever amp? If
you can please tell me how cause we have tried, even if your just amping
enough to compensate cable loss at the AP, but in my view amps don't really
matter if there amping the nose cause there amping everything so the SNR ratio
is the same its just now instead of hearing and yelling like an infant you're
an adult. But that's my view I might be a complete loony bin but then again it
wudnt be the first time I was told I was wrong.

Amps amplify signal *and* noise, so to my thinking, you'd want
as little
amping as possible.
High gain antennas is good, but the higer the gain, the narrower
the
vertical beamwidth.
Good luck and have fun figuring out what's best. ;)
(I started out with a 500mw amp and a 8dB omni. Everything got
*much* better
when I went to sectors)
