Paul,
I've been using MMDS clamshell antennas on my system for about a year now.
These are foldable elements that when opened form a half parabola and are
about 20 dBi gain. Am using Linksys WAP11's on a 1 mile link. Short 300
ft link is using a Linksys PCI wireless card feeding 15 ft of RG-8 to a
clamshell in the attic thence to a Netgear attachment point out at the
nodeshack. The PC in the nodeshack acts as the router for the network.
Thusfar the system has worked very nicely even tho I have a couple of
video links in the 2.4 GHz band plus 3 WISPs in the area. I do however,
use horizontal polarity since the WISPs are using vertical polarity as
this reduces the chance for interference.
