| Roger <r@invalid.invalid>: Oct 07 04:53PM +0100 Hi, I'm hoping that someone out there will have some info on an ON Semiconductor 5105FA |
| Trevor Wilson <trevor@rageaudio.com.au>: Oct 07 09:33AM +1100 I have a Roberts Radio RCS80 on the bench. Buggered if I can figure out how to pull the thing apart. Naturally, I emailed Roberts Radio for assistance. NO dice. Apparently all their documentation was lost in a flood 10 years ago. Really? Anyway, no one at Roberts Radio can assist. They referred me to a repairer, but the reference disappears into an internet black hole. I am hoping that someone here has some experience with the RCS80 and can advise.

Oh, be nice. 300ft is about the limit for omnidirectional antennas on both ends of a 2.4GHz link. For 800ft, directional antennas with some gain are going to be required. To get some decent speeds, 5GHz instead of 2.4GHz. Small antennas, long range, high speed... pick any two. Drivel: For your amusement, a Model 15 TTY used as a terminal for a Linux computah. Handling upper/lower case was a kludge and handling arithmetic and programming symbols was impossible.

I tried linking the shop to the house on 2.4 using 24" antennas at both ends. Distance was 1400 feet.

I bought a pair of Ubiquiti LiteBeam M5 with 23 dB antennas.

Hi Jeff, We go way back, decades, regarding Fox's/Snit's childish rants on Usenet... o Nobody takes Snit/Fox seriously (just google for his name for reference). Don't worry about Snit (Michael Glasser is who Fox's Mercantile really is). o He admitted it himself, years ago, when we caught him with the same IP What I want to say is that I THANK YOU for helping the OP out. o I know there are adults on s.e.r who, like you, are knowledgeable. The whole point of adding s.e.r and a.i.w was that the Windows group needed your expert assistance, which I, as an adult, for one, greatly appreciate. Let's hope the OP reads your advice and takes it to heart for his problem o Adults like you can help him, and, in doing so, you help all of us. It's what Usenet is supposed to be all about... o To that end, I include the OP's original post, verbatim, below: o WiFi out to 800 feet <https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/microsoft.public.windowsxp.general/uEhm2dTCc2o> From: gfretwell@aol.com Newsgroups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.general Subject: WiFi out to 800 feet Date: Fri, 25 Sep 2020 23:28:01 -0400 Message-ID: <vsctmflrf2pusplivqig7o5k1up4cobvlb@4ax.com> I didn't want to hijack the other thread but Arlen got my interest with those antennas. If I wanted to hit a LAN based camera 800' away, what would I need to to do (clear LOS). The objective would be to attach it to an existing security DVR that has 2 unused WiFi portals. I am trying to avoid the cloud/phone thing but that seems to be what most of these ones I see are doing these days. I assume once they are on the network I could coax my DVR to see them. Do I need an enhanced antenna at both ends or would the dish at the host end give me enough signal strength to talk? Thanks -- There are only two kinds of people on Usenet - one of whom adds value. |

No, he isn't. I've known Jeff on other newsgroups, for over 20 years. |
