John,
They are both running. I did not do anything special other than the client-configuration and manually setting the country to no country via the Wireless tab when the script failed during the item 21 configuration.

> One out-of-the-blue question: Do you have both chains enabled on the radio? The factory default setting (for the RB912UAG-5HPnD at least) is to just enable chain 0. Last time I checked, the configuration instructions on the HamWAN web site don't enable the second chain (chain 1). Enabling the second chain can make a pretty substantial difference in net signal margin and stability.

Thanks Carl. Went in the wireless tab and set country and frequency mode then ran the regular item 21 config line and it went without error.

Stephen,
I have a 52 mile shot. Looking at the specs of the ant/radio you mentioned I see it is good for about 24 miles. Wouldn’t quite make it.
Thank you for the info in any case.
