As I should have mentioned, this is a point-to-point system of wireless
bridges, not a point-to-multipoint system as is commonly thought of in
digital wireless applications. These links are on rooftop or tower mounts,
from several feet above a building roof to over a hundred feet up a tower,
connected with high-gain, narrow-beam antennas. The 2.4 GHz links connect
smaller buildings to one, central "hubsite" in the area, which uplinks the
smaller buildings to a backbone at 5 GHz. What I need is a way to discover
and locate RFI at 2.4 and 5 GHz that is (or might be) interfering with the
system. I hope this makes my situation a little clearer. Sorry about the
incomplete description.
