:-( We had to stick with the KP reflector The WB one had two fatal flaws for the installers, the first being that the top doesnt allow the j arm to come in from the top, they like to do that for discrete installs, that was something we could have lived without if it werent for the housing where the j arm comes in no allowing full downtilt, I would much rather use WB gear any day.
We are migrating from ubnt to 450, so we had to get other clips, and I thought they also came with different length arms, but i could be wrong On Wed, Sep 24, 2014 at 11:20 AM, Chuck McCown via Af <af@afmug.com> wrote: > Exact same design as the RCL-2 when it comes to the azimuth and > elevation adjust. > Just not understanding, but that is OK. > > *From:* Ken Hohhof via Af <af@afmug.com> > *Sent:* Wednesday, September 24, 2014 8:30 AM > *To:* af@afmug.com > *Subject:* Re: [AFMUG] PMP450 3.65 Oddities > > Yeah, I’m not fond of that.
