Remember, at 5.3 gig you are only allowed 1WATT eirp. That's 30 dB. If you
have a 24dB antenna the radio output has to be dropped down to 6dB.
But, that's part of why I love 5.3! Forces people to use good antennas and
low power radios instead of high power radios with junk antennas! hehehehe

What kind of distance are you seeing with those 5G Rootennas? And what
kind of APs & Antennas are you using? Just curious - we're looking at
moving all new customers to 5Ghz.

Those MTI's are nice looking product. Nice price too. Have you checked
out the pac wireless 5 gig rootennas yet?
They are working great for me and they are cheap.

I was thinking....
Although legal issues involved... (so not indorsing or recommending
this idea)
An Atlas Fox, mounted inside a MTI 24 dbi Dual Pol antenna w/ stock
radio case back, and a custom mod to bypass internal antenna and jumper
to the ext antenna connectors, would be less expensive than both a base
Fox5800 unit and the 5830SU, and give us 16 more additional DB, which
would make it a fantastic combination for a high end business or
residential CPE able to survive the noise, upgradable to OFDM, and easy
to mount. But most importantly, it would only be one radio CPE type to
stock to cover all needs, allowing it to be easier to make quantity
orders.
In qty 25+, MTI w/ case $245 (maybe a little more with import charges)
Atlas Fox $149.
Pigtail Jumpers: $15 Total: $409.
It would take more time to hack(build), but it would save time by not
having to muck with the dish. So why is Trango not doing this yet?
