I'm not sure why you'd think that, since there are only three 802.11b/g channels (1, 6 and 11) that you can use at a time if you don't want to overlap with another.channel. I read somewhere that you will actually have more interference problems if you are on a channel that overlaps with someone else than if you are on the same channel. -- The input of one of the amateur television repeaters on Santiago Peak is on 2442 MHz (which is the center of channel 7; see http://www.scrrba.org/BandPlans/scATVmap.pdf). Last month, I visited the meeting of the San Bernardino Microwave Society and they broadcast the meetings via that repeater. The guy who set up the equipment said that they had suffered interference from the 802.11b/g users and were now using a 20-Watt amplifier so they wouldn't be bothered by that interference. I'm not sure what the ERP was, but he was using a dish antenna. The SBMS monthly meeting is the first Thursday of the month, so there should be a meeting tonight (http://www.ham-radio.com/sbms). -- Stan Slonkosky --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "SOCALWUG" group.
