Hey everyone, I'm new to the forums here but was hoping i could get some advice on how to setup three 5 ghz rockets and three 120 degree sectors. (just ordered them yesterday and should have them first thing next week)

I currently have a 100 foot tower that i was going to place these on. (three 120 degree sectors to cover a full 360 degrees / each with rockets) I planned on running them all in the 5.7 ghz frequency range with airmax on.

My question is that when i set these up, would i configure each rocket exactly the same, or would i need to separate frequencies since they are all right next to one another on the tower? I guess i would also need to be running three separate ethernet cables up the tower to each rocket? What other recommendations might you have for running this type of setup?

Again, i would appreciate any input you may have,and thanks!

You will want three separate frequencies (non-overlapping channels) and have three separate Ethernet runs.

I found the rocket radios through roc-noc.com, and the antennas through wisp router.... i know roc-noc still has more of the rockets available...
