Hello Ben,

Quick math lesson...

15dBm - 2dBm + 13dBi + 14dBi - 2dBm = 38dBm

free space loss over 30km = 130dBm

38 - 130dBm = -91dBm... ie still able to get a connection on cisco and
lucent based gear... and guys in WA have made claims of such... I
personally have done 10km on less then 1/2W at both ends... any
further I would need a boat...

BA> 30mw and a 12db antenna!  And 10km to 30km links? Using this much power?
