Deploy, establish and enhance point-to-point microwave communications channels for US Army customers within Europe. Preformed radio frequency path profile, locating optimum transceiver locations and interference avoidance. Used troubleshooting techniques such as half-split, tx/rx loopbacks to achieve problem isolation and observe synchronous timing jitter and used Bit Error Rate Testers (BERT) to evaluate signal quality.

Configure, deploy/setup spatially and/or frequency diverse transmitters and receivers supporting medium range wireless data links (80-200 miles) using air density boundary diffraction (bouncing of different layers of the air) within a team of 4-7 under the direction of more experienced senior technicians. common tasked involved installing wave guides and dummy loads, klystron cavity tuning, intermediate frequency performance observation. While utilizing satellite earth terminals, i setup parabolic receivers, acquired the satellite, performed transponder power balancing using a spectrum analyzer and achieved modem lock with remote earth terminal under the direction of more senior technicians. router to router connectivity would then be proved if clean transmission path was established.Also performed over the air crypto re-keys.
