added observation re antenna difference from OP

Mine was supposed to be an upgrade compared to what they have but I call B/S on that now. 2) I will be challenging the tech to explain the signal interference on the one freq vs the other. | |

That makes me wonder how competent the ISP's technician is. Did he or she try another antenna, or test the cable, or swap out the LTE device? (I'm speaking rhetorically, I don't expect Philip to take notes on what the technician does.) | |
| Dec 8, 2020 at 18:26 | comment | added | Philip Lee | hey guys...thanks for the welcome and appreciate that you see that I was trying to be as polite as possible. Not trying to imply blame to the ham. To be honest, after reviewing this with the ISP tech late last night, we feel it is highly unlikely that the ham interference is the problem. We did note though that my 2 neighbors (within 50m of me with same ISP but different antenna syle on a different frequency - 3565MHz) have very good signals with SINR values of 17 & 21 respectively. So it appears that 'something' is interfering with the frequency that my particular antenna is using. Phil | |
