Re: 6.6mile PTP link - hardware?

Yeah that's going to be tough. All I can suggest is to make sure your up/down tilt are as close as you can get before raising that mast. Can you even see the CPE site at the top of the tower? If you can't, that mast probably isn't going to get you over it.

Also, if that's CAT5 all coiled up on the top of that tower, and it's for your radio, shorten it up. That's an EMF magnet during an electrical storm.

No. At 6.6miles and both small ROHN25 towers I can't see anything.

Yea there are a bunch of old cat5 wires up there from other antennas from our previous WISP business that we sold off 7yrs ago. I'll have to clean that up.

Whats my odds of 900mhz working, if I am shooting between 2 POPs that have 3 900 sectors each, serving about 200 customers in all directions?

Zilch.

Get large 5ghz grids with bullets or use Rockets but looking at your tower configuration you will have wind load issues with Rockets.

Yea even those 25dbi dishs worried me a bit. This tower at the AP side shown above can't go any higher, as there is no room to run guy wires.

I'll try and align these a bit more to get something better, might have to try 2.4 I suppose.
