Nothing serious. Just playing around to make sure the 10m stuff was working.
Found a problem with the internet going down when transmitting with power on
10m. ISP has their gear on that tower and recently replaced a router at the
base of the tower. Did a lot of troubleshooting Saturday evening and concluded
that it is either the backhaul antenna/radio, the CAT cable on the backhaul or
the new router....OR, all of the above. Disconnecting the 3 access points from
the system resulted in the same scenario so this is why I've concluded it has to
do with the backhaul side of the system. Ordered some filters to put on the CAT
lines to see if that will solve the problem. Also spent Saturday afternoon
installing a rotor under the latest addition to the 15m antenna set and then
hoisting and mounting another 4 element 15 on the same tower.
Got a chance to use these new/additional antennas on 15 late Saturday and
Sunday. Both seem to be working well and seem to play well when switched into
the multi-antenna scheme.
