It’s not clear that 25 links is less than 25 times the work of 1 link, but I guess one could ask.
There are also intangibles, like how hard do they work to get all the links in one sub-band to help you keep down the number of spares you need to stock. And to optimize the parameters like VPOL vs HPOL (I think VPOL is supposed to have less rain fade), and ACAP vs ACCP vs CCDP/XPIC. I’d like to think even if they discounted the price they would still spend just as much time trying to optimize the parameters for me, but time is money.

FCC fees will be per site, less for modifications than new. If you’re going to license a bunch of paths into the same site, send all the applications together, the FCC price is the same for 10 paths into a site as for 1, but if you come back later, you’ll have to pay for a modification. I’ve never done 7 at once, I guess it wouldn’t hurt to ask if they will discount the price a little.

I had a quote to do 7 links and then on top of their fees there was FCC filing fees. Thought it was kind of high.

One call sign as long as you keep all your gear within 1 arcsecond of what the coords on the license are. -- AF mailing list AF@af.afmug.com <mailto:AF@af.afmug.com> http://af.afmug.com/mailman/listinfo/af_af.afmug.com
