Is it the mount or the grid itself. I haven't noticed it with the
mount, but I know moving the wire grids around they will deflect. Get a
couple of the die-cast ones if you don't have any and see if they are
better.

Mac,
Have PacWireless made any changes to the mount on the 29db grids... I
have 4 in use and the mount isn't very solid. The grid deflects a lot
in the wind. I can watch the signal go up and down as it moves.

I do use their dishes where I have a large enough tower, water tower
or a
roof. I will tell ya though - - the 29dbi grids are mighty fine, much
less
expensive than a solid dish, wind load is no comparison as well as
the ease
of mounting. If you are leasing tower space - - the grid is a no brainer
unless you have to have the extra db that comes with a dish.

Are we preferring their grids to dishes?

Mark,
I have several 8 mile 5.3GHz links (YMMV) using PacWireless 26dbi
grids,
MT & CM9's. IMHO you can't go wrong using the PacWireless antennas.
I have
built a wireless network that covers 12% of Louisiana utilizing their
antennas exclusively for my BH. Well - I do have several of the Trango
dual
polarity ext's.

I have usually used Trango backhauls, so I have not had to worry
about 5
GHz
antennas and what to choose. Now I'm going to try a MikroTik backhaul
with
a CM9. Currently, I've got two applications:
1. 2-mile link that I can perhaps use 5.3GHz over.
2. 8-mile link that I'll go 5.8GHz over.
What antennas have you used to accomplish links such as these...
Also, kI have heard that the output power of the CM9 in a MikroTik
can be
adjusted. Experience?
