[HamWAN PSDR] "r2" Version Supports all Three Band Widths - MikroTik QRT 5ac 5GHz outdoor flat panel 24dBi antenna

[Donald Rotolo]

Channel bandwidth is different from channel tuning. 
One is occupied spectrum, the other is transmit frequency.

Dear PSDR List Members,

HamWAN's PDF comparing various devices shows the QRT 5 ac:   
       http://hamwan.org/Standards/Component%20Engineering/Client%20Hardware/antenas_mantbox.pdf

However, on the webpage http://hamwan.org/Standards/Component%20Engineering/Client%20Hardware.html it states: "Avoid Mikrotik's 802.11ac modems. These are incapable of tuning the 5 and 10 MHz channels used by HamWAN and are therefore incompatible."

It is not unusual to find outdated material relating to electronic devices, and I think this is the case here, so I thought it best to check with the manufacturer.  Below is the response from MikroTik Support confirming that the new version of the QRT 5 ac also supports 5 and 10 MHz band widths because of a new chipset in the "r2" revision.  Just need to make sure you don't get the old version.
