I have done 18 GHz @ 7 miles several times without issue. But in Utah.

I even feel sketchy about 18ghz at 7 miles. That's at the cusp where you have
to decide whether to use a big fatty dish or switch to 11ghz.
If you're in a desert, then maybe it's all fine and good to do 24ghz.
Does UBNT provide some kind of path calc tool? That would be a good place to
start.

I would do licensed. 11 or 18 GHz. Then you save the spectrum and have
something that works all the time. That that much more money. If you are
maxing out APs then you have the customers to pay for the licensed BH.

More than 1.5 to maybe 2 miles at 24ghz is nuts.
...but it depends how much rain you get.

Hey all,
I have a PTP 450 link at 6.937 miles that is working fine with 3 access
points. But we want to install another 450 AP and I am loathe to use it as will
saturate the link in no time.
Looking to save the 5ghz spectrum for our AP's, I am thinking of the
AF24HD. Has anyone installed a link that far? Does it work well? I don't need
the full 2 gigs. More like 300 would be more than enough for quite a while.
