But then there is Windload.
I might get away with it using small sector or panel antennas.

I actually got clarification on the Pacwireless solutions yesterday.
2 ft feeds do not work for 3 ft dishes, different lengths.
The PacWireless is a dual pol feed on a 3 ft dish, but only has the gain
of
less than a 2 ft dish.
The purpose of upgrading from a two foot to three foot was to increase
gain
not decrease it.
So PacWirelesslesses Dual Pol dish today, is a useless product. I was
told,
its in engineering now for a redesign.
Gabrial 2ft dual pol- 28.9 dbi ($350) - best value to day.
Radiowaves or Andrews 3ft dual pol- 32 dbi ($1024) - desperate to get 3
more
db.
Gabriel 4 ft Dual Pol -34.5 db ($1000.)
Pacwireless 2ft single pol - 29 dbi ($180)
Pacwireless 3 ft single pol- 32 dbi ($250) - Very cost effective Option,
if
you can live with Single Pol.
Pacwireless Dual Pol (3 ft)- 27 dbi. ($450) - worthless.
There is a clear gap in our options for 3 ft dual pol, and good value.
Four feet dishes are a big pain, won't fit through some hallways and most
roof hatches. And the windload is atrocious, when trying to mount it.
Three feet dishes are MUCH easier to work with, half the windloading, are
safe to install on existing wall mounted masts of slightly smaller
diameter
(2.5") left from Teligent and simliar companies. But yet maximizes the
available DB able to get from an antenna for a link.
I'd really like to see a 3 ft Dual pol option under $600, at some point.
What really is Dish antenna anyway? More or less just a large trash can
lid!
How much can it really cost? Its not that difficult. I'd like to see
PacWireless finish the job, and redesign that feed to get the 32 dbi that
it
should be able to get. Or Gabriel to fill in the hole. What I'd really
like
to see is Maxrad make a Dual pol version of their 3 ft dish. There 3 foot
single pol dish was the best we have ever tested from a gain point of
view,
really sweat. It out performed all the 4 fts from competitors. Its around
$450 but its only single pol now :-(

Pac wireless has a 2ft dual pol, and a 3ft single pol, maybe the 2ft
Feedhorn fits the 3 footer?!

The street price I have found on 3 ft Dual pol 5.2-58Ghz parabolic
antennas
have been around ....
$1045 for Andrews, and $1025 for Radiowaves.
Any vendors on list in a possition to do better than that? If so, contact
me
off list.
I find it odd, that there is such a large gap between 2 feet and 3 feet.
2 feet Dual pol gabriels are runing around $350. It would be nice if
someone came up with something half way in between for 3 ft dual pol.
