I think it's something about 2x2 rocketM that is better. The only bullets I really like are Wolf Match Target in .22LR; they are almost as hard find in stock in any quantity.
This is a 13 mile link using dual polarity dishes, a 2' on one end, 3' on the other, going over water. One end has multiple Alvarion 5.8 links and a trango 5.8 link on the same tower. The other ends has 2 Alvarion 5.8 sectors, and a Trango tlink45 link. The dual polarities / diversity do help reduce tidal fluctuation over water in comparison to other 5.8 non-N systems, based on my rssi graphs. Haven't tried it yet where we actually overlap frequencies with other backhauls. I do that at a couple of sites with other non-N gear.
