Couple of things, the antennae should be at different angles for 2.4 and 5.8. The quote max range for 5.8 I think is quoted as 800 metres. 5.8 ghz the antennas should be vertical so they are at ninety degrees to the AC, as shown in the drawing by Eric 13, at 2.4 ghz they should be leant forwards towards the AC so they are at about 60 degrees. If you have heavy interference on the standard channels for 2.4 ghz, you may want to do the 2.4 ghz 32 channel modification. You can search for that on this forum, there are tutorials on how to carry out this mod, which is only replacing one file, and a link to file that you need to replace the standard one with.
Aloha SPIKE,
Mahalo for the help! I was just going to post on your suggestion. BTW, any idea where that concept comes from? I use parabolics for image (jungle density) and range improvement (they work great) so angles are real important to me. But, for the life of me, I cannot figure out why this slight angle change? I use both 2.4 and 5.8 GHz for specific performance needs, so I am very interested in the benefits of angles. Any ideas?
Aloha and Drone On! |
