I would like to do one path in two 27 Mile Hops. Using 6' dishes I show a fade margin of 19db. Is this adequate for 11GHz at that rage? At 5GHz - 6GHz, I would be fine with it. I have a pair of Trango Apex radios in that band, for a 22-mile link. Four foot antennas. One side is about 130' AGL, the other is (I think) 250'. There have been some thermal ducting issues over the last few months - at least I assume it's thermal ducting. Occasionally, for a minute or two the link will lose 15-20 points of SNR, and that often pushes the error rate high enough that the radios temporarily lose modem lock. Almost always happens just before or after dawn (give or take an hour). It usually fixes itself within a minute or two, fortunately. Probably qualifies for four-nines reliability, which is "good enough" for my purposes. David Smith MVN.net
