Hello, I'm starting my small WISP with my target CPE as mikrotik ldf 5.
I want to use only that for both short and long range distances since the cost of the device with a dish is cheaper than the price of general CPE.
My problem is mounting the ldf 5 on clients poles and towers.
Since the Dish's angle and elevation faces upwards it makes it difficult to get the right angle panning it up and down without the dish being blocked by the metalic support.
Will be glad if pictures can be shared on how it was mounted and at which angle the signals are much better.
Attached is an image on how the dish reflects the signal from the LDF 5 feed.
Thanks

For ground links it's often easier to mount the dish upside down.
Searching for "inverted dish wifi" on google images will give you some good results.
One example with diagrams and good read: https://www.ab9il.net/wlan-projects/wifi3.html

For example like this:

thanks very very much. How far can this cover when using a 19dbi 120 degree sector antenna.

It depends on the country. And allowed EIRP performance

Not considering country regulations, how far in KM can this travel
