Depends on the distance and the obstructions. Sometimes yes, sometimes
no. Would you rather have more power than you need or not enough? We
also propose use of automatic transmitter power control so we only use
as much power as we need.

One last note on Vyatta and Linux routing
For low port count applications, most router OSs will be fine. But, as one
approaches the 300mbps+ per port, and multiple ports, X86 systems run into
processor issues regarding PPS and small packets. There were two ways to
solve it. 1) Use NAPI. 2)
I'm not sure that Vyatta has much of anything over Mikrotik today, because
Mikrotik has matures to be be a very complete and reliable router package.
When we originally looked at Vyatta, Mikrotik had BGP bugs, and Vyatta used
Quagga and was maintaining it. But from what I here MIkrotik has stabl
I hope my comments weren't mis-interpretted as "bashing". I just want people
to understand what they are getting themselves into, so they can make
informed choices.
On the upside... Vyatta also employs some very talented engineers, some with
very impressive backgrounds. (I cant remember exactly
Could the big stick possibly be vibrating at the frequencies you're hearing?

Same experience here. The beauty of Mikrotik routers is that you can
afford to have several lying around ready for backup.

Mikrotik did have some very nasty BGP lock-up problems and
multi-processor lock-up bugs. It definitely wasn't the hardware
because once they got it fixed, everything worked fine on the exact
same hardware. BGP would just die. Router would still be up and
working but with no BGP sessions. We the
I would have secured it with the pvc at about two thirds of the way up. I think
it would hold the antenna more rigidly. If you moved the pvc it would probably
change the physical resonance of the antenna and if that's the source of the
sound it should go away.

That would seem logical if the lasso were longer. As it is, the pvc is only
about 18 inches long so any stretch to 18 inches of poly rope would be
insignificant.
Yes, there IS a slight bow to the stick. I think the pvc was anchored
slightly low and short. I fretted about that at first, but the

Is it me or does that Tram antenna look significantly bent at the top

If the rope goes through that PVC and the wind is blowing, the rope would
