Rather than hold it by hand and try to run the laptop at the same time, I mounted it to an existing piece of uni-strut that was supporting part of an existing HVAC assembly. It was extremely coarse aim, and not easily “tweaked” with an angled clamp on square uni-strut. The vertical was only about 4.5’ high, with the bottom 2’ obscured toward the front of the dish path by a beam assembly. The lower part of the Poynting was almost LOS obscured by a roof beam assembly about 18” in front of the dish. The upper part of the dish was literally touching the HVAC equipment. In short, the antenna was shooting out of a recess between the roof and HVAC equipment. Signals were measured between -65 and -75 on both Haystack S1 and S3. Fine tuning was a joke because of trying to rotate the clamp around the square unistrut. Still, speakeasy gave us a good 3-4mbit even under those conditions. I expect we will be significantly better on the pole with the ability to tune and more open space / less Fresnel issues around the dish. It is a 100% unencumbered shot to Haystack.
