I might be able to convince the townhome board that this is ok for me to put up on the roof. They dont have to, but I would love to see it someday. Note: I am not advocating saying that this is a MMDS or DBS dish while modified and in use. That is most likely illegal and not a cool thing to do. Anyone in coon rapids north-westish (perhaps east, dono) of egret and hwy 10 want to try this out sometime and make a link? I would be happy to share redundant network access in kind for the moment until an overlay network is formed. Thanks.

System gain (DB) = Antenna gain (DB) + coax loss (-DB) You can find the published loss figures on www.timesmicrowave.com for the LMR-xxx series and www.belden.com for 9913 and 89913.

Last year Tim Pozar expanded his write up on how FCC rules affect 802.11, the result is here: http://www.lns.com/papers/part15/Regulations_Affecting_802_11.pdf Section 3 discusses power limits in a very straightforward way. It's a zero-sum game for point-to-multipoint, but not so for point-to-point links. -- andyw at pobox.com Andy Warner Voice: (612) 801-8549 Fax: (208) 575-5634 --__--__-- Message: 7 Date: Mon, 3 Mar 2003 09:59:59 -0600 From: Andy Warner <andyw at pobox.com> To: wireless at lists.tc-unwired.net Cc: TCWUG <tcwug-list at tcwug.org> Subject: [TCWUG] Re: [wireless] Primestar Reply-To: tcwug-list at tcwug.org Neal Krasnoff wrote: > http://www.wwc.edu/~frohro/Airport/Primestar/Primestar.html For these climates, you can also invert the entire dish, so that the feed is on the top, and the tin can doesn't fill up with snow/water/ bird-droppings. These rusty-can solutions are not going to fare very well in our climate. They're fun, but expect to be doing replacements/ modifications at regular (and possibly inconvenient) intervals. -- andyw at pobox.com Andy Warner Voice: (612) 801-8549 Fax: (208) 575-5634 --__--__-- Message: 8 Date: Mon, 3 Mar 2003 11:25:15 -0600 (CST) Subject: Re: [TCWUG] Re: Primestar From: mgenelin at ieee.umn.edu To: tcwug-list at tcwug.org Cc: "TCWUG" <tcwug-list at tcwug.org>, "TC-UNWIRED" <wireless at lists.tc-unwired.net> Reply-To: tcwug-list at tcwug.org Hey Chris (and all)- Wrong. Take a closer look at the rules Andy just emailed out. Section 4 -- Equipment Limitations and Certifications: 15.203 - An intentional radiator shall be designed to ensure no antenna other then that furnished by the responsible party shall be used with the device. ...and... 15.204c: Only the antenna with which an intentional radiator is authorized may be used with the intentional radiator. So it _is_ illegal to do what we are discussing here. But everything we discuss on this list is purely academic until someone builds it, right? :) Regards, ---Matthew Genelin--- > It would not be illegal to use the DBS dish as long as you reduce the > transmit power level as requied by the FCC. > > The amount you have to reduce the power is directly dependent on the > actual gain of the antenna system. > > -- > 73 Chris Cox N0UK, G4JEC, ex-AB0CN, ex-G8PTC RNARS #1157 EN34jv > > chrisc at Chris.Org Ping Jockey's do it until they HEAR the burn... > WWW Home Page: http://WWW.Chris.Org/ http://www.pingjockey.net > Cultural observation: > Europeans think 100 miles is a long way; > Americans think 100 years is a long time! > > > _______________________________________________ > Twin Cities Wireless Users Group Mailing List - Minneapolis/St. Paul, > Minnesota > http://www.tcwug.org > tcwug-list at tcwug.org > https://mailman.real-time.com/mailman/listinfo/tcwug-list > --__--__-- _______________________________________________ tcwug-list mailing list tcwug-list at tcwug.org https://mailman.real-time.com/mailman/listinfo/tcwug-list End of tcwug-list Digest --9B095B5ADSN=_01C2DA950A32A3D0000006D8iceberg.giddy?up--
