Re: [AFMUG] Antennas Behind Wood or Glass in Old Building?

2016-03-14 Thread That One Guy /sarcasm
Have you discussed potential exterior camouflage enclosures? There is also
the option if the siding is not a material part of the antiquity and you
are skilled with a hand plane to frame out a section of the wood and hand
plane until it is very thin and then fill the void with an rf transparent
acrylic to regain the sstructural strength and minimize the loss.

Re: [AFMUG] Antennas Behind Wood or Glass in Old Building?

2016-03-14 Thread Christopher Gray
Chuck,

How far back should an antenna be from an obstruction (if the obstruction
is mandatory and space is limited)?

I found a nice paper with information about empirical RF loss testing
through various materials. The main drawback is the tests are for 0.5-2 GHz
and 3-8 GHz (skipping 2-3 GHz). Found here:
http://fire.nist.gov/bfrlpubs/build97/art123.html

Glass test results starting page 141, and wood on page 147. Based on the
published results, it seems I might expect signal loss in the 3 dB range
when moving from behind glass to behind 1" boards, but I'm not sure I can
be as far back as in their testing (1 m from the horn to the specimen).

their 90 / 120 degree. I am assuming its 3 dBi rolloff at 90 and dBi at 120 and 
not anything mechanical or two different models. If it is infact 6 at 120 then 
I am planning to talk to KP.

I talked to Shane about it and he said an engineer threw that feature in at the

I am using the dual-5Ghzsectors and have had great results with them. I am 
swapping out 120 that are full with these dual 60s using the same mounts and

Re: [AFMUG] KP 3.65/5 Ghz Sectors

2016-03-14 Thread Brandon Yuchasz
That’s what I have done as well in the past. I have been avoiding buying any 
more of them because they are such a pain to get into after they are mounted. 
The cambium one is actually quite nice an allen wrench and that’s all it takes 
to swap but they are not available in as many different coverages.

Someone else will have to comment on that.  I found the best solution was to 
remove the two side bolts and leave the bracket mounted to the pole.  Then 
loosen the two on top and swivel the sector up to remove the cover.

Glad to hear they scrapped that.  I wanted some sort of a seal, but one that 
would slide in and out would be preferable.  Nobody wants to encounter a nest 
the size of one of those boxes at the top of a tower.

I complained about the addition of the cable glands because of the way it was 
implemented. The glands are part of the removable part of the box, not the 
stationary part. As a result to remove that cover on the box you had to loosen 
the cable glands, push enough slack through to allot you to swivel out the 
cover, and then let the cover hang with the cables going through it. Hated it. 
I talked to Shane about it and he said an engineer threw that feature in at the 
last minute and they have since removed them from the design. I said just 
redesign so that the cable glands are stationary at the bottom of the box and 
let the lid close around them. We'll see.

 

I am using the dual-5Ghzsectors and have had great results with them. I am 
swapping out 120 that are full with these dual 60s using the same mounts and 
getting more capacity.

If you have used KP antennas before they have made some marked improvements 
over their old hardware designs.  The bracket is stronger, but also sticks out 
much further, removing the need to disconnect the sector to get the rear cover 
off.  If you are not using UBNT or EPMP, then the cover never needs to come off 
(except to connect the Type-N jumpers initially), and the 450 sectors can be 
mounted to the cover.  Having not done that, I am guessing it will be a fairly 
tight fit.  The grooves are the correct size this time, and Rockets fit without 
modifications (after a slip up in manufacturing and testing that we received on 
our last order).  The EPMP adapter also appears to work, although I haven't 
tried it personally.

 

Also, the shielded boxes used to fill up with Wasps, but now they have cable 
glands leading into the AP case.  My only complaint with this new improvement 
was that the shielded connectors do not fit through the gland.  It's a lesson 
that I should have learned long ago, but I didn'tso I had to cut the ends 
off, push them through, and then re-terminate them. 

 

We are only using the 2.4GHz/5GHz combos, and have been happy with their 
performance.  They are a huge antenna, but not as big as two antennas.

[AFMUG] EV SSL

Extended validation (green bar with company name) SSL certificates are now

I'd be leery of mounting a 2' dish on anything smaller than a 2" pipe.
That looks like a 1" pipe.

Re: [AFMUG] KP 3.65/5 Ghz Sectors

2016-03-14 Thread Jeremy
Someone else will have to comment on that.  I found the best solution was
to remove the two side bolts and leave the bracket mounted to the pole.
Then loosen the two on top and swivel the sector up to remove the cover.

I’m still confused how thugs attack police in Chicago and St. Louis 
and try to attack Trump on stage and that’s Donald Trump’s fault.  One guy 
punches some protestor who shouldn’t have been there in the first place but 
that gets more press than hitting policemen and it’s Trump supporters who are 
blamed.  My question is why the guy charging Trump on the stage was let go 
after 1 day without a more thorough investigation?

2016-03-14 Thread Ken Hohhof
It was also accepted (as it probably is in much of the world) that the church 
was involved in politics.  As was the military and the university.  Just like 
families aspired to have one son (I assume the gay one) enter the priesthood, 
one the military, and one go to the university and become a doctor or lawyer.

But the church, military, and universities each represented a certain 
constituency and were expected to be involved in politics.  As you might guess 
the military represented the right and the universities the left and the church 
represented, I don’t know, God?  Oh, and there were lots of strong men and 
demagogues populists.

But the current Pope came from there and seems a nice fellow.

Re: [AFMUG] KP 3.65/5 Ghz Sectors

2016-03-14 Thread Ty Featherling
I complained about the addition of the cable glands because of the way it
was implemented. The glands are part of the removable part of the box, not
the stationary part. As a result to remove that cover on the box you had to
loosen the cable glands, push enough slack through to allot you to swivel
out the cover, and then let the cover hang with the cables going through
it. Hated it. I talked to Shane about it and he said an engineer threw that
feature in at the last minute and they have since removed them from the
design. I said just redesign so that the cable glands are stationary at the
bottom of the box and let the lid close around them. We'll see.

I am using the dual-5Ghzsectors and have had great results with them. I am
swapping out 120 that are full with these dual 60s using the same mounts
and getting more capacity.

One thing I love about this list, is the diversity of opinion and the ability 
to discuss religion and politics without any major flame wars.

We can spar but when it gets too serous we back off for the most part.  I think 
most of us respect the beliefs and opinions of those that differ from us.

I love to argue.  I will even argue the opposite point of what I believe just 
for the fun of argument.  And many times I argue tongue in cheek statements.

Always meant to have fun, perhaps inform, never meant to browbeat or 
proselytize or insult.  I hope y’all take it like that.  Apologies to those 
that have make taken me too seriously.  I am not ashamed of any of my beliefs, 
but I respect your right to have yours too.  (even though they are wrong...

Religious based legislation is any legislation based on religious
texts that impacts large bodies of people who are not given a choice.

Science based decision makings are those where theories have been
brought together, tested, tested again, hopefully tested again, and
then a reasonable expectation of correctness proven. Otherwise it's
just a guess and not science.

That said, this is not about climate change (which I have never stated
a position on one way or the other, so "my worship of climate change"
likely doesn't apply).

Re: [AFMUG] KP 3.65/5 Ghz Sectors

2016-03-14 Thread Jeremy
If you have used KP antennas before they have made some marked improvements
over their old hardware designs.  The bracket is stronger, but also sticks
out much further, removing the need to disconnect the sector to get the
rear cover off.  If you are not using UBNT or EPMP, then the cover never
needs to come off (except to connect the Type-N jumpers initially), and the
450 sectors can be mounted to the cover.  Having not done that, I am
guessing it will be a fairly tight fit.  The grooves are the correct size
this time, and Rockets fit without modifications (after a slip up in
manufacturing and testing that we received on our last order).  The EPMP
adapter also appears to work, although I haven't tried it personally.

Also, the shielded boxes used to fill up with Wasps, but now they have
cable glands leading into the AP case.  My only complaint with this new
improvement was that the shielded connectors do not fit through the gland.
It's a lesson that I should have learned long ago, but I didn'tso I had
to cut the ends off, push them through, and then re-terminate them.

We are only using the 2.4GHz/5GHz combos, and have been happy with their
performance.  They are a huge antenna, but not as big as two antennas.

If I had to make the rules, I would probably say 6 weeks after conception for 
compassion even though I would not be comfortable with a wife or daughter

Then I move... if you will allow me to.
Otherwise I am in a minor holocaust.

How do you identify religious based legislation?  If I think your worship of 
climate change (which I actually believe in) is a religion of secular 
humanism, then to me that is religious based legislation.


In other words, if you get the wiff that my support may be based on ancient 
writings, or the vision I had between 2&4 in the morning, it must be 
religion?


But if my support is based on a brain tumor that is inducing the visions 
between 2&4 in the morning, it is based on science even thought I might 
think it is God.  Which is it?

I have 3 kids. 2 are my own, another is my step son.

My mother wanted to abort me when I was born but my father took off on
icy roads in a car with no insurance and prevented it.

My wife had an abortion, and that caused her to miscarry another later
down the road. She is a very strong woman, and still believes it's a
mother's or couple's choice. She still thinks about both often, but
knows that she made the right choice at the time. One of her brothers
ended up in "the system" for awhile, where he was never treated well
by any home he went to, and was even molested on two different
occasions at two different family homes.

In the end, her choice, not some fucking governments to tell her what
she can and can not do with her body or with her children. Is this
fucking China or America?

To clarify my previous post, me too.   I am NOT in the camp that thinks 
abortion is okay at any time during the term of the pregnancy.

I don't believe many people are actually pro-abortion.  And I don't think
Josh characterized it is a "handy solution".

What I fail to understand is people who don't want others to have 
access to
birth control, like condoms or birth control pills or even "morning 
after"
pills.  You may believe life begins at conception and apply that in 
your own

life.  But if you don't want others to have abortions, the most effective
way to that goal is to accept that others might use contraception or 
family

planning methods that are not 100% per your religious beliefs.

I put the abstinence-only people in this same category.  That is not a
realistic approach, if your goal is really to reduce the number of
abortions.  It sounds a lot more like if you're going to have sex, you
deserve to get pregnant, you slut
