18 is not that different from 11 or 23 for that matter. It should
behave similarly, except for the beamwidth with a given antenna size and
the freespace loss.
Are these split mount or all-outdoor? Is it the same at both ends? Is
the path clear? Any fresnel issues?

Tx power at 14db. Should be 14.5dB ....three different companies have
aligned these dishes before I was asked to try and get the link closer
to targeted figure. On this one -53.1 is best I got. A bit better
than others but not where they want. I took both antennas completed
off paths and started over. Got it to above level. Made sure it was
not sidelobe. These radios are about 6 years old Dragonwave...the
client says they were in mid 40s according to records. What can
cause such a difference if alignment is not an issue?
