That assumes you have plenty of available spectrum. But in reality 5.4 is DFS which is yucky, and 5.2 takes a xmt power hit due to OOBE rules anywhere but the top of the sub-band.
If you have limited spectrum, I would think 450m for the win.

So you're seeing traffic hit ~55M at peak? If so, I wouldn't expect to see much more with PMP450.

Its not like the FCC gives 450 any more power than epmp, so path loss should be the same. Im looking at this epmp 1000 sector thats running overall about 64-7% efficient with 17 subscribers and wondering what the gain is to move to 450 (exclude medusa, as its not field proven) -- If you only see yourself as part of the team but you don't see your team as part of yourself you have already failed as part of the team. -- If you only see yourself as part of the team but you don't see your team as part of yourself you have already failed as part of the team.
