I think most of us are looking for a solution for the following things:
1) more gain than a bare SM but a reflector is overkill
2) good gain but wide enough for n/NLOS
3 and the least of my concerns) customer doesn't want another "satellite
dish" (oh and BTW, why is it pointed at the ground? I fixed it by
pointing it back up like the DirecTV and now my service doesn't work. FML)
Connectorized + external antenna means weather sealing, which I hate.

Can't you use the 3GHz KP Boomerang and a connectorized SM? Or are
you just looking for a reflector for the non-connectorized SM?

Yeah, I can get very creative about mounting a reflector dish
anywhere.
Wallmount, fascia mount, soffit mount, eave mount, upside-down
J-pipe mount, tripod, non-pen, etc.

Connectorized SM + $150 panel (L-com) = not cheap either.

But maybe a Force style mini-dish. Plus the fins on the back,
it would look cool. Hate to think about the price.

Maybe we'll get an integrated panel SM with the PMP455. No,
probably not.

Either of these appear to let you mount at 45 degrees:

Subject: [AFMUG] 450 3.65 SM Antenna
I have a few places I need more gain then a bare 450 3.65
SM but
cannot fit a reflector. Is there a small panel antenna
that works
with the 450 3.65 SM?
