9-4 Communication Issues

If two radios work within close distance of each other and do not work while separated, 

then there are two possible reasons why wireless connectivity isn’t working properly:

  An  RF  path problem is one possibility. For  example, poor  antenna alignment, the 

tower  is  not  tall  enough  when  the  radios  are  installed  at  a  long  distance  or  the 

connectors  are  not  seated  properly,  etc  (these  are  the  most  common  problems  in 
installations).

  The  other  possibility  is  interference  problems  caused  by  high  signal  levels  from 

another  unit.  The  interference  can  be  checked  by  changing  the  frequency  and  then 

seeing  if  another  channel  works  better.  Or  you  can  change  the  polarization  of  the 
antenna as  a way  of avoiding the interfering signal. To know in advance how much 
interference is present in a given environment, a spectrum analyzer can be attached to 
a temporary antenna for measuring the signal levels on all available channels.
