Re: [WISPA] Looking for antenna/enclosure - help
I didn't get a lot of bites on this so I'll as another question... Those of you using MT or similar, what antennas are you selecting for your tower APs for approximate 40-90 deg coverage per radio. I'd like to stay within those beam widths - less than 40 is not practical usually and more then 90 is too noisy for here.

Re: [WISPA] Looking for antenna/enclosure - help
I've seen those posted on one of these lists. Exactly the same as trango. From the same manufacturer. I think they are in Israel. Can't remember the url or company, but I'm thinking it was an overseas wireless distributor that had them. Anyways, hope that helps.

You can use a Pac or chinese DCE case and then attach a panel or sector to it (drill, bolts).
