This is a copy/paste of an inquiry submission we received on our website. What is this guy asking for? Discounted service possibly? As a WISP we certainly don't feed from the public trough, are we "required" to do some kind of discounted service here? Having said all that I would mention that

[AFMUG] Closest AF24 Paths

With as Tight as the beams on the AF24 are, and how sensitive alignment is, how close of azimuths can you have on 2 paths (real world experience)? Is 5 degrees too little? Spec sheet says <3.5degree beam width. So it should work?
