Hello all, I believe StoneBridge Wireless here in the TC is using BreezeCom as per their Web site info under FAQ section. FAQ: Who designed the radio units? StoneBridge Wireless uses radio units made by Alvarion formally named BreezeCom. They are an Israeli outfit, originally named LanAir, that designed these systems for use in tank-to-tank, and tank-to-HQ, real-time communication for telemetry and computer communication for the Israeli military. Each unit is programmable to use different frequency hopping patterns within the 79 frequencies in the spectrum, and to hop between these frequencies at 10-30 times per second. A client radio picks up this sequence from the sending unit and they hop in an identical pattern. Individual packets can be lost or dropped and there is no data loss.

Set it up, watch it fail to live up to expectations (as usual) then kindly ship it back to them and say no thanks. _______________________________________________ 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
