After a Site Test, if you have determined that you will need to add Relays to
cover the area you want to operate in, you will need to determine where to place
your Relay in relation to your Base Station. To effectively cover an area, there
must be overlap between the area covered by the Base Station and the area
covered by the Relay. The example below shows what can happen with no area
overlap:
As you can see, the only area adequately covered is in a path where the two
circles touch. The “dead space” is completely without coverage. Alternatively,
locating the Base Station and Relay as shown below results in better coverage:
To Site Test a Relay, all other Relays and Base Stations must be turned off.
This is the only way to know for sure which Relay is responding. Alternatively,
perform the Relays’ test out of range of the other Relays and Base Stations.
