Its doable with the PTP650's, add 3' dishes for a nice rx gain
I seem to recall a story several years ago, before Orthogon was bought
by Moto, about a link somewhere in Central America (Nicaragua or
Panama?) that used a pair of 5.8 GHz Orthogon radios, 6 foot dishes, and
went over 100 miles. Hilltops and a really big dish will do wonders.
Licensed 6 GHz radios, with their 6' dishes, are considered very
reliable out to 30 miles. An unlicensed link is not protected against
interference the same way but several of the 5.8 GHz options seem plausible.
But I wouldn't touch 24 GHz. It's ground zero for rain fade, so long
hops there are only useful on sunny days, best in the desert. ;-) The
adjacent 23 GHz licensed band has less rain fade, though, and is worth
considering, and it should be duck soup on 18 GHz, though again licensed
radios cost a bit more, especially the higher-powered or higher-speed
options. We're shooting a DragonWave 18 GHz hop about 8 miles across
Boston Hahbah and it's very solid, though extreme weather might cause
some dropouts. We didn't see any during this past week's snow, though
signals faded a few dB during yesterday's rain.

Seems like you are asking a lot of unlicensed, unless it is completely
quiet in your area...

Subject: [WISPA] Advice Needed on 200 Mbps FDX Radios
Hi Wisps,
We are looking for a pair of radios that can do 200 Mbps FDX over 11
miles (real world, not manufacturer's theoretical marketing promises).
We are looking at using an unlicensed link (most likely 5 GHz) due to
the time constraints, although we're open to suggestions.
The make/model we were considering was Motorola PTP650 with 450 Mbps
upgrade license. We are not wed to Motorola, however. The cost seems
to be the limiting factor at this point.
Another WISP I spoke with mentioned Bridgewave TD60 might be 1
possibility.
Your thoughts?
