- 24 down , 8 up just holding it, my roof peek is another 30 ft up, but I'm going to wait until my siding gets put on before I mount the antennas.
"24 down , 8 up just holding it"
Does the second antenna make any performance difference at your location? Faster pings/downloads/uploads?
- Pretty sure it's helping, I didn't get to in depth with my testing as I was alone and holding the antennas, nighthawk, and my cellphone at the same time. I did go up on the roof but didn't bring any gear with me just to test the steapness, one slip and you're going for a one way trip to the dirt.
I need some longer bolts for the brackets and probably a thicker pole, the antennas touch at the bottom with the rig I've got now, so I have them stacked at opposing 45's ...but I was happy to see 4 bars and the speed I got , so I put it away and started building my fireplace. I should have some help tomorrow will try a solo antenna and see what's, what.
