But this is not a SCADA radio. It is a broadband radio having all its capabilities hobbled almost to the point of not even staying registered, by poor SNR. It’s being forced to run in its narrowest channel at its very lowest modulation. You would use different equipment for sending the occasional 1 or 0 at telemetry speed.

That's useless. I can't say I'm all that surprised, the signals are bad and the interference is worse. But the only way to find out was to try it. -----Original Message----- From: George Skorup Sent: Tuesday, December 15, 2015 7:25 PM To: af@afmug.com Subject: Re: [AFMUG] 900 MHz 450i report So what did you get, about 10dB SNR and 5Mbps of throughput?

Even the coax boots are nice. Will probably work well for those of you who don't have -65 noise floors. We are going to have to give up on 900 MHz at this location. This was the last gasp.
