You should have had -55 at that distance with 2' dishes.

Subject: [Ubnt_users] Rocket 5 AC trial was a bust..... 




My first try at using the Rocket 5AC has ended with going back to the Rocket 5M 
after less than 2 weeks... 

The link was at 11.9 miles, with 2 foot dishes on each end. 

The signal was mid 60’s, the link would start at 6x and creep down to 1x. kick 
the station and it would again start at 6x but again go to 1x. 

Thought maybe bad radio, replaced both ends and the same. 

Performance also was terrible with only 30-40 megs udp using 2 Mtk 2011’s on 
each end for test . Put back the Rocket 5M’s, performance has returned. 

I believe that trying to use these in only the 5.7 – 8.4 is not going to work 
in my area. Using another rocket and doing AirView I thought I would have 
enough spectrum. 

The difference was the channels used. The Rocket 5M is on 5500 and the Rocket 
5AC was 5.735 and 5.82... I did try others but these were the best.
