If its the same board why is it a completely different power configuration?

My first Airgird , I assembled it wrong, I put the Radio in the center at 90deg of what it should have been, and was not able to see any signal from the Rocket M5's..... It had an accident, fell flat on it's face on concrete and broke the Radio.. The 2nd Airgrid I tested was the smaller one, that was able to see the signal from the Rocket M5, but was very very sensitive to allignment... We were testing at 8.8 miles... Also tested the Nanobridge.... very sensitive and difficult to align, very narrow beamwidth... We don't have a clean LOS on this link (we do have two Rocket M5's working with 2ft Dishes, working very well...), however the Nanobridge could hear the Rocket M5 w/ 16db 90deg (smaller sector), but the Pannel was having trouble hearing the NanoBridge... For testing, I switched to the lower band and turned up the power, and was able to establish a link... since we were testing, I did not leave it up...plus chalked off poor link in the normal 5.8 band due to not a clean LOS and interference... Need to do some more testing at a 2-4 mile link to get some conclusive answers. Some of the folks on the UBNT list have reported the NanoBridge they recieved working on lower band but not working properly on the higher side of the band... I would suggest that you do some testing at distance greater than inside the office to something less than 4 miles... to get an idea of what exactly is going on.... The btw, the board inside the Airgird is the same board as what is inside the Bullet M...
