Yes for the 3.65GHz band, antenna gain does matter, because the band is EIRP restricted. For instance, for the XR3, if you look on the grant:
https://fjallfoss.fcc.gov/oetcf/eas/reports/Eas731GrantForm.cfm?mode=COPY&RequestTimeout=500&application_id=930658&fcc_id=SWX-XR3B The maximum output (in watts) is 4.2, 4.7, and 4.7 for emission designators (4M24D7D,8M44D7D,17M2D7D), or 5/10/20 MHz channel bandwidths respectively. Thats ~ 36dBm total *EIRP* If you look at the test report: https://fjallfoss.fcc.gov/prod/oet/forms/blobs/retrieve.cgi?attachment_id=900106&native_or_pdf=pdf (Page 36) It shows the max tx power tested by the FCC Lab which still met spectral density requirements. If you are using the XR3 at the allowed max txpower (~18dBm), you must use less than or equal an 18dBI antenna. (This should be specified in the user manuals you received when you purchased the XR3) Hope that helps... -Matt rea...@muddyfrogwater.us wrote: > Antenna gain does matter. > > UBNT has only one certified antenna combination - or did back when I first > filed for the license.
