We are using microwave technology transmitting over 30 miles to our satellite ground station, and even in a hellish snow-storm we don't drop any more packets than usual. It actually was pretty damn impressive the first time I witnessed that. We're down in Antarctica by the way.

What frequency?

5.8 GHz

I'm somewhat surprised that you are not seeing reduced signal quality during heavy snow. Are you using high transmit power, or some extremely directional antenna?

It's point-to-point, so yes. There's two towers at each site with quite large antennas.
