It can't get much cheaper than this. Ubiquiti has started shipping its
"NanoStation" radios in 2.4 and
5 GHz. With the appropriate country code selected, the 5 GHz unit will
cover the entire amateur
allocation 5660-5925 MHz, not just the ISM/UNII frequencies. 5, 10 and
20 MHz wide channels,
Atheros chipset, 400 mW radio, 802.11a protocols, in a molded
weatherproof case with 13 dBi
antenna, dual polarization, plus external SMA antenna connector,
entirely open source firmware
available in an all-in-one SDK for free which you can alter and compile
yourself. With power-over-
ethernet injector and 12 volt wall wart, $79 for 2.4 GHz or $89 for 5 GHz.

Being to lazy to look it up myself, how much spectrum is in the ham bands
for 5GHz that is not in the UNII or other unlicensed bands? How many 5 MHz
channels will the Nano stations achieve in that same spectrum? I'd like to
build a ham data network in our county but don't really want to affect the
commercial WISP's if I don't have to.



Thank You,
Brian N2KGC

802.11a channels 132-184 are in the ham overlap nearest I can determine.


Channels 132-140 are totally unshared with UNII and ISM allocations as thats 
typically a European allocation that happens to overlap our allocation.

These are an excellent value. THey lack great documentation. But I might
be able to remedy that - There's a deal I am working on to write their
wiki. I'll make sure I include a ham section!

Not anymore - they are part of the new UNII band 5470-5725, which is 
limited to the same power as in the 5250-5350 (UNII-2), that's not much, 
and they have to have dynamic frequency selection (radar avoidance) 
which makes the WISPs not want to use the band for outdoor links.

5850-5925 is shared with the Dedicated Short Range Communications 
(licensed, but uncoordinated) service but nothing UNII/ISM.

The XR3 is in 3 Ghz... If Ubiquiti will sell hams the 3 Ghz version, 
then we have a nice clean band... no worries..just fun !

Ubiquiti sells only to dealers. Streakwave in San Jose (talk to their 
CEO Carl Moberg) will give a discount for ham volume purchases. There is 
one available from 3300-300 MHz.

Not too far from you, there is a WISP in Enumclaw preparing to roll out 
3.65 GHz using Ubiquiti boards (slightly different version, 3500-3700). 
Talk to Chuck Bender at Skynet Broadband, 360-802-6657. They are a 
tenant at our site east of there (www.altaphon.com/ECLW), which just 
happens to be about the only site in the area that's outside of the 
protected zones from the earth stations in WA.

I was thinking Hams rather than WISP's..but then again...any info is good.
I know the site.

I may be able to use these.  What is the WLAN chipset?

no idea.  I can ship them to you in the next day or two.  you can pay me after
you get them and try them out.  worst case is you are out postage for something
that does not suit your needs.

My wife delivered me another box from the basement.  spring cleaning came a
little late this year and toxic waste disposal has a volume discount.  I will
never accept another computer from a friend again....

power supplies

rmx 05-a  5v at 10a
2 cosel uaw250s-24n  24v 11 amp

again cost of shipping.
