Hi all I am new to this group and I tried to browse the previous threads to see if this was covered and didn’t see anything so if I missed it sorry.

 

I have purchased the recommended Mikrotik radio and 30db dish, programmed it and I do see the Hamwan channels in the Scan.

 

I am shown in the HamWan coverage area according to the coverage map and I can in fact see Lookout Mtn from where I am at 120M elevation in Maple Ridge BC.  Used to connect to the 900 Mhz repeater there with a handheld on low power from here.  Dont think the QTH is the issue.

 

Took the dish and laptop up to do a ballpark test before permanent install but I am getting no signals on the HamWan channels.  When I switch to Wifi I get dozens and dozens so it is working. 

 

Rotated dish 90 degrees just in case I had the polarity wrong, still nothing.

 

Is Lookout still online pointing North?

Suggestions please.

 

Kind regards

 

Scott VA7SL
