I just put up a wonderful 5.8ghz link, 2mi or so, -50db signal off two high gain dishes, with the power backed all the way down.
How do mesh dishes handle ice? I’m wondering if I need to worry about them in the winter - they’re not radomed.

Yes, that’s a great picture.
Those dishes are radomed, though. Also, the image doesn’t specify how the links were working with the ice.
Right now, we’ve got non-radomed dishes. How do those hold up to ice?

You can get heated grids/heaters for dishes
any answers for his question??
as far as i remember, there were routerboards in outdoor cases on that router, and all was working
that is in italy, by one of our customers
ok..ok …if like that, i will display to make best good quality to our customers,
but here never snow, mountains and forestes only.

I have a couple of 5.8 grid antennas, one place got about .5 to 1m of snow up the mountain the other month. The link never dropped off even when the snow was falling quite heavy. I will be changing to a dish with radome for next winter, but quite impressed anyway. When I did get up there the was still 300mm snow on the ground and a heap of ice at the base of the antenna, so there must have been some ice up there. The radome ones are good as gold which I use now days.
