So what kinds of distances are people currently going through trees, and what kinds of signals, CCQ, throughput, etc. are you seeing? I guess I'm looking for success stories. I need to sell this to the partners. I know it can be done, and I'm fairly confident it will work in this situation, but they aren't.

I've found a few instances online of people going 1 mile with 5.8 through some trees and still pulling off a -65 and 20Mbps of throughput - this was PTP.

I know 3.65Ghz is supposed to be somewhere between 2.4 and 5.8 in terms of tree penetration, but I'm thinking this might be a good place to use 3.65, simply because of the lack of noise.

I have never worked with 900Mhz as of yet. This was our initial alternative, but there is the added cost of deployment - $160 for a LocoM900 vs $80 for a NanobridgeM2. Literally doubles our ROI.

3.65 is limited in that you can only go as high as 99 feet I believe - someone will correct me if I am wrong.
If you are using airmax - 2.4 should help

5ghz you may have some issues w/ trees however

My suggestion is a mix - I noticed that you have not mentioned 900mhz
900 and trees especially at that distance - sub 1 mile is awesome - but doubt you will see the 10mbps speeds you wish.

5ghz is your best choice - if you can use it.

setting up both 2.4 and 5ghz sectors may help - double the cost - but in the end - would allow you the most flexibility

om this tower, no one in town would be more than .75 miles
away. I'm thinking 10Mhz channels - 1, 6, 11. If we do this, I will
likely use the UBNT shields that I've seen for sale with three 120deg
sectors.
