Jeff: I had the same question when trying to select a MikroTik device for my QTH, specifically about the high end frequency agility of the DynaDish 5 (https://mikrotik.com/product/RBDynaDishG-5HacDr3) vs. the low end range of the DynaDish 6 (https://mikrotik.com/product/dynadish_6). Both the empirical information found on this mailing list, and the engineering gurus at the dealer I used, said being on the edge of the MikroTik spec should NOT be an issue. The DynaDish 5 which I purchased works fine as connected to the Larch Mtn. site. On this product, the 5.835 GHz spec is for the US version, and they have a 5.875 GHz spec on the International version (the one you need). The upper end is not a "limit" per se, and the product works fine throughout the 5cm ham band. Steve Jeffrey Coleman wrote on 5/22/19 11:22 PM:
Hi all,
Quick question: I'm looking at slides from a HamWAN demo by Scott Burrows N7DOD given at WECCWG VIII in February. In it, Scott gives the HamWAN frequency range as "ham radio microwave frequencies" from 5.65 to 5.925 GHz. Scott also lists several MikroTik client node devices. According to the MikroTik device specifications on Amazon, however, their upper frequency limit is 5.835 GHz. Is this discrepancy important? Does my client node need access to the entire frequency range as given by Scott? If so, can MikroTik client nodes be easily modified to cover 5.835 to 5.925 GHz?
Thanks, Jeff / W7EIR
