How is everyone doing with their migration to CBRS before April 17?
I still have 30 more aps to move over with only 10 migrated.
Like chickens with our heads cut off here.
Then I get some moron who throws up a device in front of one my sectors

We finished all of our migration last Friday.
Approximately 60 cambium 450 ap’s
Some issues during transition. Cambium was great help.
So far working well.

We have migrated all but one AP as well. All Cambium 450s. Cambium is great
help when you get to the right folks. The normal technical support line can’t

if the letters aren’t next to each other. As in “you sai

stuff and it's so hard to get a good view due to the wobbles. I may have
to get a pair.

capacity?

We moved a number of them to 30Mhz from 20Mhz. I’m actually not a big fan of
doing that since I think it’s going to be hard to sustain the 30Mhz channel
sizes going forward and I know we will just end up loading the 30Mhz AP’s up to
the point where we just make people mad if we have to go back
Sweet, thanks. I recently bought 12x50 Vortex pair of binoculars that

again. The image quality is amazing. But for the next pair I'll check out

Sounds like it's a big polarization cross, where's it's getting
something through but all out of alignment. But if it's a circular
adapter then I don't see how that's possible. Can you humor me and
take a pic of the other side of that adapter plate?

It’s currently 2 single pol Horizons on a Dragonwave OMT mount that combines
the H&V to the round waveguide on the back of the antenna.

OK, that says the antenna should be dual pol capable. So … is a puzzlement.
You’d expect a problem would cost a few dB, not 40 dB. Unless H & V were
swapped.
Sounds like Cambium is looking into it, maybe they come up with some ideas.

V&H being swapped will always cost you at least 20 dB and if you have them
precisely aligned V&H I can see where 40 dB is reasonable.

OK, that says
Odd thing is I don’t see any way to assemble this any way that would swap
polarity. Only way to screw it up would be internal to the OMT itself. We
are doing XPIC with this link which we have not done in a lot of other places,
so that is different.

If you rotate the whole thing 90 degrees with respect to the antenna waveguide
you could get the radios on the wrong polarizations.
Or you are peaked on a side lobe.
Have you tried to swap radios on one end?

With XPIC it wouldn't matter that slot 1 was talking to slot 2 on the
other side, it wouldn't know. At least I think anyways. Since it's
just looking for RX on the frequency it's set, and it's on the same on
both ends, and it'd still have XPD to separate the two. You could
rotate one end 90 degr
Yeah, I was not thinking of a system with the same freq on both.
Odd. Perhaps a rectangular waveguid somewhere in the system or the wrong
freq waveguide somewhere.
The photos show what I would guess is 11 GHz. That is about .750" dia plus
or minus for most system. I think dragonwave used .777
You look at Mark's photo and think what could possibly be wrong, it's a round
hole. How many ways are there to install a round hole, it's like the
proverbial one car funeral procession.
And I guess with an 820C + OMT, having H and V swapped shouldn't be possible,

Correct on size. The adapter is stepped in three places to adjust the input
and output diameters. As far as I recall as long as the diameter is larger
than the cutoff wavelength, larger doesn’t matter.

I guess from the approach of not being afraid to ask stupid questions, is it

I think at this point we are just going to go back out and try it without the
Dragonwave adapter by swapping the mounting plate on the back of the antennas
to the Cambium plates. We have a set of mounting plates on hand.
