Please forgive me for hijacking the thread!! But, the additional bandwidth is not available at 3.65 or 3.5Ghz yet is it??? Nothing beyond the 3.65 - 3.70Ghz as has been for quite sometime?? On Wed, Feb 3, 2016 at 2:22 AM, Gino Villarini wrote: > 50 mhz block its 3.65 mhz, there is no 50 mhz

Re: [AFMUG] Physical asset inventory

From what I read the RFID reader doesn't have a very large range. Apparently the tagged items must be 'passed through' the truck's tailgate opening to be read. And it requires two readers installed in the bed of the truck. Would be nice if someone else did the consumer R+D for us. :-) On 2/3/

I couldn't tell you actually. We have ours hanging outside of FCC jurisdiction. That'd be kind of an important distinction though I suppose. -Steve D On Wed, Feb 3, 2016 at 10:53 AM, Mathew Howard wrote: > Interesting, apparently the guy I talked to from Huawei didn't know what > he was talki

F that. Anything adding labor to our team is room for human error as well as additional and additive labor cost. Slap an RFID tag on the gear and never manually enter numbers or locations again. On Feb 3, 2016 1:00 PM, "That One Guy /sarcasm" wrote: > I want this > > > On Wed, Feb 3, 2016 at 12:

Wispmon handles this in our inventory module. You can use a barcode scanner to input data. On Wed, Feb 3, 2016 at 12:07 PM, Chuck McCown wrote: > Anyone use barcodes? How exhaustive and anal do some of you get when > maintaining your asset records? >

Interesting, apparently the guy I talked to from Huawei didn't know what he was talking about... or he didn't know what I was talking about... is it FCC certified? On Wed, Feb 3, 2016 at 12:41 PM, Steve D wrote: > Huawei doesn't make gear for the 3.65ghz band. >> > > They sure do. :) > > -Steve

How tight is “fully tight”? I was taught hand tightened or equivalent, rather than put a wrench on it and crank it until it bottoms out. Is that wrong? SMA connectors seem to have a more pronounced stop when they’re tight. From: Chuck McCown Sent: Wednesday, February 03, 2016 12:35 PM To: a

Re: [AFMUG] weird problem

Yeah, it is interesting to watch a N connector on a network analyzer set for return loss/VSWR/reflection coefficient. It gets better with every turn and keeps on improving right up to the last bit of movement. Anything less than fully tight is causing a problem. From: Sean Heskett Sent: Wedn

Re: [AFMUG] weird problem

3/4 of a turn on an N connector is a lot. You were probably loosing a lot of RF out that port. On Wednesday, February 3, 2016, Dan Petermann wrote: > We have two 11GHz links on the same freqs. One V and one H pol. These are > dual links, 2 - 40Mhz channels. The radios are Dragonwave, one Quant
