In my experiences with 2 meter ham gear that is around Ethernet there is a
lot of interference from the Ethernet to the ham guys stuff. I've never seen
the ham guys cause interference though to any wifi gear.

Ham guys are a whole different breed of folk and depending on how these ones
your talking to are they may be an invaluable asset to you or they may be
your worst nightmare. The ones around my area are the later and anyone that
gets involved with them end up regretting it later down the road.

Just my 2 cents,

Subject: [WISPA] Amateur repeater on a wisp tower -- gotchas?

Wispers:

I have a 180' tower sitting high on a hill above the county seat.  It 
has a mix of 5.8 and 2.4 radios and sectors/dishes.  We want to 
install an amateur repeater on the tower, initially at 70 cm (440MHz 
UHF), and eventually a 2 m (144MHz VHF) radio.  The dual band antenna 
feed point will be at 120'.  It is 17' long.  There is no microwave 
equipment below 160'.

I don't think there will be any issues with interference either way, 
but thought I'd tap into the wealth of knowledge here to see if any 
of you has any experience doing anything like this on your towers.

Is there any mixing at uhf (or VHF) going on in the microwave radio 
cards?  I can't find specs that even speak of intermediate 
frequencies.  Gotchas?  Hints?  Comments?

Thanks!
