Signal with what though ? A 30db Rocketdish setup I can get 17 miles out and the link profile has fresnel in the ground.
120* 16dbi sector with Rocket to 30dbi dish Rocket. Course I didn't leave it there, I instead connected to another 5ghz Bullet5 on a 120* Maxrad and fresnel is still in the ground but Rocket reports 29megs. The heavy rains here recently haven't hurt it's 1500 byte pings at all either, so I'm impressed. ---------- Original Message ---------------------------------- From: "Mike Hammett" <wispawirel...@ics-il.net> Reply-To: WISPA General List <wireless@wispa.org> Date: Mon, 29 Mar 2010 14:53:32 -0500 >I wouldn't even try to get a signal 15 miles away on a 120. :-p > > >----- >Mike Hammett >Intelligent Computing Solutions >http://www.ics-il.com > > > >-------------------------------------------------- >From: "Robert West" <robert.w...@just-micro.com> >Sent: Monday, March 29, 2010 1:29 PM >To: "'WISPA General List'" <wireless@wispa.org> >Subject: Re: [WISPA] Ubiquiti Sector Tilt angle > >> I was compensating for the electrical tilt but just one degree was >> throwing >> it way, way off.
