I wouldn't amplify if I were you, adding an amp in the mix will amplify the noise as well.
I would try using a short length of lmr400 if you can.
Then try the test again when it isn't raining and see if you get a better signal/throughput.

Yes there is the amplifying of the noise as well as noodles has mentioned, mostly the eirp holding you back though. Damn limits...
POE should help you cut down the length of cable as much as possible, which is what youve said pretty much. In the end it does come down to money, just probably reuse the cable...
Hmm is it possible to reuse the 2 feet of lmr 100 cable? 1 foot for the first site? and the other 1 foot for the other? See that way you can save money and minimise loss in the cable.
Well, rain... over a shortish distance its bad enough, its got to be vicious over a 27 Km distance!
try it again when its not raining, id say it would make a HUGE difference.
Also im curious as to what the longest link is in New Zealand.
If you need some help maybe these guys could help? But looking at their links, youve got the longest one so far
