[HamWAN PSDR] Advice for parts for a portable setup

[lionelhlvrsn at gmail.com]

Thank you, Stephen! I emailed Eurodk, and they changed it to the US plug. And then a couple of hours later I got an email that it has shipped. A big hearty THANK YOU for catching that and catching it so quickly.

Also meant to thank Ian KE7MAP earlier for the recommendation on the Dynadish and the link to that really good write-up of a HamWAN station build. Thanks, Ian!

Eurodk’s reference to “Euro plug” is for the AC adapter that supplies the DC PoE power to the dish, ie it has the European style AC plug on the adapter.  Of course, we don’t use euro-style AC sockets here in the USA, so you want to order the “USA plug” for any dish you order from eurodk.com (or other European seller).  If you order the “Euro plug” version from them, you will get the proper frequency needed for HamWan but you will also get an AC adapter that you’ll then need to turn around and either buy another AC adapter with our US plug on it or else and adapter to convert the Euro AC plug to the US plug.  

 

I have not yet see a European seller of MikroTik that sells the FCC Part 97 version of these antennas (what is being called the “US version” in this thread), they only sell what is being called the “ROW version” in this thread as the rest of the world has no need for the Part 97 restricted version.  My belief is that only US sellers sell the Part 97 version (I could be wrong).
