It's just math. What's your received signal? What's your received interference? Is the difference greater than what the modulation you want to use requires?

A lot off ours are at 4 miles from mountain peak out to 10 miles off the same AP. Do M5 ACs perform well over those distances. We have no AC radios deployed at this time. I am trying to figure out where to upgrade to PRISMs and where to do Mimosa. In either case it is 90% of customers that will need truck roll.
