Plan
- Add rage3 rb and move Diabolix link to that
- Add UT7, with 220v and direct power PSU for all rbs
- change pmurgs link from 27dBi grid / 31dBi dish to dual polarity 29dBi dish
- swap the horizontal polarity 27dBi grid with a 31dBi grid
- clean up
Results
- Added UT7 with 220V. Removed old two small enclosures and consolidated Rage1 and Rage3 and new psu in one UT7 enclosure. Experianced feedback between the rbs over dedicated power cables resulting in rbs sometimes rebooting.
- Need to attend to this.
- Move Diabolix to Rage3 411 rb. Swapped one 27dBi grid on Diabolix link to 31dBi grid.
- Moved pmurgs link to new 433 and enclosure. Swapped out 31dBi dish and 27dBi grid for 29dBi dual polarity dish which has increased space on pole for future upgrades.
- Rage1 sector would not come back online after upgrades done.
- Need to attend to this.
- cleaned up old Ethernet cables running into house.
