If you're changing antennas, then you should be doing coordination
again. Or height, frequency, channel width, etc. I tell Liz what we
want. If she says we can do it, I just change stuff when she says to.
She logs into ULS and does her stuff.
Radiowaves HP3's really aren't that large. The bigger problem with them
is needing a 3.5" OD pipe absolute minimum. 4.5" OD is more betterer,
but that's some heavy ass shit.
The heavy rain bands we get round here, 4' dishes on both ends won't
make much difference. Tonight looks like it will be fun with the
shitstorm coming out of MN and WI.

what does it cost to submit a correction on a link? say we register 2'
and go up to 3, or vise versa?

does mimosa have max EIRP and antenna gain setting, assuming it

Turn it down until you are. You still have the benefit of
more RX gain on both ends.

that's what I figured. I assume putting in a bigger antenna
than is licensed benefits in terms of pattern but then I'm no
longer legal on EIRP?

Considering their goal of reducing interference through
more directional antennas, I'm sure that installing a
different antenna than licensed, especially a smaller one,
is a big no.

we have some links we are about to license, we can
"get by" with 2' antennas, but one is right on that
margin.
we can do 2' all day long at all the sites involved,
anything bigger and wed have to do some retrofits that
will create some other issues, not a huge deal, just
prefer to not have to deal with the repercussions
we would like to have some troubleshooting flexibility
down the road. maybe a 4 and a 2 or 2 3s, just
depending on how the actual path performs over time
so can we do that, license them all with 3 or 4' and
install 2' today?
I'm thinking no because of the antenna patterns on the
PCNs not being as narrow with the smaller antenna, but
id like to hear its totally doable with fcc blessing
and they'll even send a guy with a rope to pull them
up for us
