He put a 5 gig Rocket on the dish to A) see if the radios are bad and\or B) it propagates better, so would be a better signal
Unfortunately, the dish is likely the wrong shape to help the 5 GHz at all. ----- Mike Hammett Intelligent Computing Solutions Midwest Internet Exchange The Brothers WISP ----- Original Message ----- From: "Josh Luthman" <j...@imaginenetworksllc.com> To: "Ubiquiti Users Group" <ubnt_users@wispa.org> Sent: Saturday, September 2, 2017 8:31:13 PM Subject: Re: [Ubnt_users] Aligning AF11 I'm not sure what you're saying as far as the 5 Ghz and 11 Ghz stuff?

You can use this to align it if you step back from the tower 100' and use a compass until it is line with the dish drop an orange cone or something similar and align the dish with it. This is always a good starting and reference point to align it.
