I apologize for this potentially obscene question.

Can the terms jack off or jerk off be used for female masturbation? If not (which is my intuition), what would be the not too poetic vulgar slang equivalent? By too poetic I refer to expressions such as spank the monkey, choke the chicken, etc.

I checked online dictionaries, and most of them don't expand on the usage, and some of the definitions in the Urban Dictionary imply that jack off primarily refers to male masturbation, but do not provide the female counterpart. 


Question: Wireless link frequency choice (900Mhz vs 5.8Ghz) for 2-3km distance
Answer: Chris S's answer is incorrect in several areas.

3km is not approaching the limit of 5.8GHz.  Similarly, that's not as big of a distance as for 2.4GHz wifi either.  Chris says 10X, I say 100X the distance is possible.  The longest range 5.8GHz wifi that I've heard of is 304KM with a 1.2M hand made antenna (See: Long Range Wifi).  I believe it went over water so there were not any thing in the way of the signal.  It used Ubiquity radios.  I don't know if it was reliable, but to get a connection and send data over that distance is nothing short of amazing.  

I used to work for a wisp carrier and had wifi radios about twice the size of your hand easily going 10KM with good line of site.  I personally had wifi on my house going 8KM without any issues.  Amazingly, they were only 500mW.  

We were using 5GHz radios and a mixture of Ubiquity and Microtik hardware.  They work almost flawlessly.

While it is true that with lower frequencies you need bigger antennas.  You'll notice that your home wifi doesn't have large antennas.  Neither do 5GHz ones.

In reality, 2.4GHz should perform better, but 5GHz in my experience works just as well.
In theory, 5GHz could be affected by rain fade, but I didn't find that even over the 8KM link.

As for 2.4GHz and other devices like microwaves and cordless phones inside the office, it doesn't even factor in.  The reason it doesn't factor in is that you'll be using directional antennas.  Better still, if the antenna is on an iron roof you will be shielded from all that noise coming from inside the office/house. 

Having said all of that, I will say that it's not perfect for every situation.
You need:


Line of site between the two buildings. Factoring in the freznel zone (good open clearance)  
A suitable place to mount the antenna to achieve point 1.
Hopefully not much wifi traffic facing your directional antennas (no gaurantees there, but it should be workable) even in a reasonably crowded wifi space.


Freznel zone looks like this:

By the way, I've had trees in the way of the freznel zone and in some cases right in the middle and it still worked, although it does affect the performance a lot.  Install your antennas as high as practical/possible.

You can still get interference issues.  Usually because of other devices transmitting in your direction at the same frequency.  So it's not perfect.  Directional antennas help a lot with that.

I can recommend the 5.8GHz radios simply because I know they work well. And yes, provide good bandwidth! From memory I used a Ubiquity Bullet M5 with a patch antenna (another brand).  The other end was a less directional antenna feeding multiple clients but used a similar Microtik radio.

I don't know of anyone who uses 900MHz.  But I do see you can buy them at around 3X the cost than 2.4 or 5.8.  Stick away from it, it seems uncommon.  In several countries the 900MHz spectrum is quite crowded anyway.



Update: You've been looking at the airmax antennas and the 900MHz radios.  While I think performance should be great.  I think you may be spending much more than you need to... perhaps a little overkill!?  3KM is not a long distance.  I'd try some of these if you can.

Update2: You can also mitigate interference issues using polarized antennas.  Here's a good write up that explains the concept.  From memory, we used horizontal polarization.  As I recall sometimes if I set the client radio to vertical polarization I could see maybe 12 AP's.  But when setting it to horizontal I only saw 3 or 4 and half of them were ours.
