Ok let me rephrase. Has anyone used Mikrotik as a BMU as an LNS server to connect to another provider's LAC server. With powercode managing the leases. Just curious if it can be done. On Thu, Jun 9, 2022 at 2:38 PM James Howard wrote: > I think he meant diesel in a power stroke but we only h

Do you have the ability to adjust tx power? If so you can watch to see if it changes at the far end. A bad tx will probably not change at the far end if you change it. -Original Message- From: Nate Burke Sent: Thursday, June 9, 2022 9:25 AM To: Animal Farm Subject: [AFMUG] Age Old Q

That is the general rule of thumb. It's often a 50:50 crap shoot, but the odds are in favor of a bad TX rather than a bad RX. Don't beat yourself up if you pick the wrong end. bp On 6/9/2022 8:25 AM, Nate Burke wrote: I have an AF24 link that suddenly dropped 20db in 1 direction. Other dir

I have an AF24 link that suddenly dropped 20db in 1 direction. Other direction is unchanged, so I doubt alignment. Am I right in thinking that it's more probable that it's a bad TX radio, rather than the RX going deaf? -- AF mailing list AF@af.afmug.com http://af.afmug.com/mailman/listinfo/af

I didn’t even know Mikrotik made that. Here I’ve been drilling a hole in the case and feeding my own cable into the case so I can splice it to the PSU connector on the board. Then I plug that into a Meanwell RSD bolted to a 1U blank. It’s the only way I’ve ever done it. -Adam Fro
