We do an AF24HD at 4.5 miles right now. It’s linking at 64QAM and 770Mbps FD. It does alright, except when there’s heavy rain. We’re in the desert so there isn’t too much of that. -c > On Feb 29, 2016, at 9:25 AM, Adam Moffett wrote: > > More than 1.5 to maybe 2 miles at 24ghz is nuts. > ...

The bigger Rx antenna on the AF24HD is helpful, but you're still severely limited for link budget due to +0 maximum TX power and 24 GHz's atmospheric behavior. For $6k+ the price of an AF24HD, I would buy instead a set of SIAE AlfoPlus2 1024QAM licensed radios in 11 or 18 GHz. At your distance wit
