I've never seen the Ligo 24Ghz radios...just based my OFDM comment on what Matt said in his initial post:
"The software and management interface is very comprehensive and has some interesting features in it, including a constellation feature that gives an approximation of what the OFDM signals look like." So, if the radio set isn't OFDM then why does it have OFDM statistics? Did you also pay $8k for a 85-98Mbps radio set? Still seems really high when compared to Trango Apex that can produce 100Mbps to nearly 400Mbps for not much more money.

Ours is going half mile. 98 Mbps Fdx Radio is limited due to FE port only, GE is out Gino A.
