[AFMUG] Largest dish for ePMP?
I have a father in law that is 18 miles from an ePMP tower run by a local WISP. Per a text message from the FIL; "all they could get was a -78 with a large offset reflector." I texted back and asked if they could just use a connectorized radio and a dish. I guess the tech was 'in the zone' and did not think of that. Since I am more used to UBNT stuff, what is the largest production dish I could advise the FIL to get to help these guys out? They offered the Force 110 dish but I am sure there are some aftermarket dishes that provide more gain. Advice? ryan PS, I know the guys that run the WISP read this list-serv. You guys are doing a great job. Good luck getting all that maintenance done before the snow flies! -- D.

RCL-3 http://www.mccowntech.com/dual-pol-31dbi/ You need to order the specific radio holder you need. If you are using ePMP make sure that the dealer gets you the holders for that radio. They are not included. -Original Message- From: D. Ryan Spott Sent: Wednesday, September 16, 2015 9:21 AM To: af@afmug.com Subject: [AFMUG] Largest dish for ePMP?

Re: [AFMUG] Largest dish for ePMP?
The easiest thing to use it probably a 2' (or 3', if you want) UBNT RocketDish - RFelements makes an adapter to snap a connectorized ePMP radio right into the dish.

Re: [AFMUG] Largest dish for ePMP?
hah, that video is awesome! I wish somebody would make the opposite of that bracket... for putting AF5x radios into Force 110 dishes, granted there probably wouldn't be a huge market for it.

Odd, Bitly says it was download about 25 times this morning. The pdf is in the proper directory. The link points to the proper directory.
