    Remote link for GMRS

    Food for thought. https://www.wired.com/2007/06/w-wifi-record-2/ I have done long range wifi with a set of $3000 ubiquity air fiber dual dish +45db gain set up, 41 miles is as far as I got. Internet is the best option over a 100 miles. You can't dispute the science of a link this long, telcos used huge feed horns 20' wide, 200' in the air and 6" wave guide with over a million in infrastructure to build and maintain a single microwave links 100 miles. The FCC won't licence a path that long. I link several sites together using cellular internet, at 15 bucks a site it will take years to over come the cost of a WIFI or microwave link. Don't waste your money, trust the science, 160 mile link cost effectively is a total pipe dream..... If you do the math the aiming of a link 160 miles apart would need to have an accuracy of .005 of an inch or roughly the width of a human hair, good luck maintaining that with wind and interference along the path.

  2. I used to set up a trailer with 40 ft crank up tower, solar panels, and outriggers. We used it for oilfield PTP communications and also for MotoTRBO demos. All we needed was an S-10 pickup with a hitch ball to drag it around. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
