I like the horn design because they're very clean as far as
antenna coverage goes, and they're also good for covering both
close in customers as well as several miles out. Much better than
a standard sector.
Also they're small "A F", but solidly built. Low wind load means
you can put more of them on a micropop 25G.

People seem to forget that gain is inversely proportional to
coverage area. A sector that moves the vertical beamwidth from
4 degrees to 90 degrees will have a very detrimental effect on
gain.
That said, the lack of gain everywhere outside of the intended
area is non-existent, meaning much lower noise.

They're great for 802.11ac style micropops
Good vertical coverage though, much better than a sector. Clean
beamwidth / edges.
