You’ve checked that you are not getting LBT events, right? From: Sean Heskett via Af Sent: Tuesday, December 02, 2014 9:33 AM To: af@afmug.com Subject: Re: [AFMUG] 3.65 450
Are these links LOS, nLOS or NLOS? Are you using v13.2 firmware on both the AP and SM? Are you using the cambium sectors or another brand? I wouldn't recommend omnis for any links longer than 2milies with clear LOS. Are you using integrated or connectorized SMs? If connectorized SMs the what antenna are the SMs using?
