I am trying to establish a wireless network for Internet Access, Video
Conferencing and Intranet Applications, I though to use either a
2.4GHz Sector or Omni Directional Antenna would do the job but I can
find any product that goes as far the distance I am trying to cover (a
radius of 20Km). My idea is to use a powerful radio with the Antenna
monted on a tall mast at the location of the internet feed (via VSAT),
this location is idea for LOS at the other locations.


for such application you will need on both sides approx. 80cm (offset
used Sat) dish with properly mounted a proper feed to it; visual line
w/o obstacles in-between is a must ! get some clues:
