Have you done side by side testing with both cards? Look at the
modulated RF signal on an SA? Watch the signal output on the cards over
time? Test for RX levels changes, over time? Look at the internal
chipsets and manufacturing processes used to make the cards?? Test in
outdoor weather conditions??
FYI we have tested and continue to test the Seano cards, this is
compiled info on the testing:
CH 1 2 3 4 5 6 7
8 9 10 11 12 13 14
Turn on 24.5 24.5 24.3 24 23.9 23.7 23.5
23.5 23.4 23.2 23.1 23.1 23 20
At 10 Min. 18.1 18.2 18.3 18.4 18.7 19 19.1
19.2 19.3 19.3 19.4 19.4 19.5 16.5
Using the Internsel test info:

Sensitivity @ 11Mbps,FER<8%
Ch1 Ch7 Ch14
-83dB -83dB -83dB
The Seano cards and Zcom cards are VERY different in there design, for
one Seano uses a low cost 2nd stage that max out, where the Zcom cards
uses a 500mW 2nd stage! The reason the Zcom cards cost more is simply
because they use better quality components and have a better design
which is the reason Demarc OEMs these cards. All the info is there to
run the test your-self.
