I was able to put a hose clamp behind the mounting plate and then hold the radio on with that. I definitely do not like it, but it's better than hanging by the pigtails. http://community.cambiumnetworks.com/t5/Your-Ideas/ePMP-2000-Suggestions/idi-p/67910 - Mike Hammett Intelligent C

Re: [AFMUG] How do I decide if we need more technicians?

Part of this is a matter of scale. If you are starting out you need to have coverage and you will be at a pretty high ratio (starts out at 1-1 until you get your second customer :) ). After you have some momentum I think Chuck’s 600-1 on Field Techs is about right. For phone techs we look at

Re: [AFMUG] How do I decide if we need more technicians?

We are currently staffed at 500:1. I think a lot of it has to do with the age of your network (how many CPE conversions you have to do, removals from cancellations, etc) vs a newer company with all new gear and not as much chance for a customer base and equipment to age, move away etc. Probabl

Re: [AFMUG] 450M SFPs

Thanks Mark, Was wondering about that gland, it looks a lot like the glands that come with Siklu radios which are too big. I've ordered the 450M kit and I'll see how it fits and test out BiDa. I'm planning on adding an Isolated DC-DC +48V bus at the site at least for now unless someone else want

800:1 with thousands. I think that number would vary allot depending on network growth etc. The better specs (fade margin) you require to be met on install the less you will need. On Thu, Aug 3, 2017, 4:52 PM Joe Falaschi wrote: > We are currently staffed at 500:1. I think a lot of it has to do

How do you weatherproof it, aren't the plugs just exposed on the side? On 8/3/2017 5:09 PM, Steve Jones wrote: http://www.genconnexdirect.net/honda_propane_modified_generators.htm On Thu, Aug 3, 2017 at 3:45 PM, Jim Bouse

Re: [AFMUG] Great portable propane generator

We are in need of a new generator so I am following along with interest. My question is why not just use gas instead of propane? What is the up side. Second question is how does the propane fair in cold weather. Say 20F or less? Thanks, Brandon From: Af [mailto:af-boun...@afmug.com] O

Re: [AFMUG] Great portable propane generator

Because gas goes stale, spoils, coats the insides of everything with varnish etc. Propane is OK in cold weather but there is a minimum tank size for specific deliveries at different low temps. The more gas you need or the lower the temp the larger the tank. But for a small generator like thi

They recomend running the exaust at the tank in the winter, its caveated with keeping it at a safe distance. They start fine in the cold. There is a model with waterproof plugs, but weve never had issue with rain or snow. These are nice, i can toss it in my front seat with a tall tank in my alero,

If you have a liquid pickup on your large tank you can top them with gravity only. It’s wastes a bit if fuel but you can fill them all the way up. From: Steve Jones Sent: Thursday, August 03, 2017 6:31 PM To: af@afmug.com Subject: Re: [AFMUG] Great portable propane generator They recomend r
