Re: [MLB-WIRELESS] World Wifi recordI have taken down my Ubiquity Bullet M2 and my slotted waveguide (modified)

They should work well for this exercise as the Bullet is quite sensitive. I will try and test the antenna today.

cheers Peter

  One point here,

  The wireless speed's are what they are.

  Ie the minimum speed is 1mbs using a wifi protocol.

  I would want to have a calculated min of -85 before an onsite test.

  Ok Let's do a sample calculation now based on the actual equipment I own

  I'll use the calculator at

  http://www.afar.net/rf-link-budget-calculator/

  We'll assume that the setup at Binunyong has the maximum power output made up of 30db gain dish plus 8db power output and -2db cable loss = 36 dbm maximum legal power

  At my end on Mt Dandenong a 24 dbm ex galaxy dish plus 14 dbm power and allow 2dbm cable loss with a Ubiquity bullet with -95 db receiver sensitivity @ 1Mb/s

  That should give a receive signal strength of -84.3 dbm with a fade margin of 10.7db

  Not a huge margin to play with but arguable doable. The Ubiquity will probably do 256kbs at -100 or -105dbm so that should give a bit more elbow room.

  cheers Peter

          Hi Peter,

          

          

          If you’re talking about the grids with the gold anodized aluminum, 24db

          

          The ex galaxy ones with a width of around 600mm, they are 24db too.

          

          

          

          Kind Regards

          

          

          Peter

          By the way Peter

          

          What gain do those ex Galaxy slatted dishes have?

          

          cheers Peter

                  Hi tony
                 
                  The north and south 2.4 antennas are facing wwn and wws. They are only 14db panels the range isn't suitable for record attempts.
                 
                  BUT I did pickup gho north in the past at the geelong side with the horizontal pol wave guide !
                 
                  So it does work well.
                 
                  Keep me informed of your schedule as I'm happy to help out with the melbourne region end.
                 
                  Cheers
