In Canada with the higher 24 GHz limits it's also possible to use with a pair of 3' dishes (it's a modular radio head, not an integrated product). Weirdly the max Tx power is still +0 in 24 GHz but there's almost no limitations on gain.
60 MHz wide channels should help cut through any interference that might exist in a hard-to-reach/weird location, particularly when you have more enterprise-customer types buying their own AF24 and setting them up without the knowledge that a typical WISP has. 5.5 miles is probably asking too much, I would use it at a max of 5-6 km in a Pacific Northwest rain zone.
