Hello, I'd like to get some suggestions for a rugged Power-over-Ethernet IP weather station that would survive a winter on a tower. I'd primarily like to collect wind speed + direction data. The link between CapitolPeak and BawFaw continues to have 16dB swings <https://monitoring.hamwan.net/cacti/graph.php?action=view&local_graph_id=881&rra_id=all>, and we're running out of ideas to explain it. We've verified it's a line-of-sight clear shot (no trees swaying into the path), so the current theory is that perhaps steady wind levels are pushing both dishes just slightly off-aim. If you're confused by the graph: the large jump between the 12th and 13th is when we moved the link from a sector to a dish. There seems to be less signal variance with the dish-to-dish link, but still enough that it's not normal. At least we have fade margin now. Thanks, --Bart
