Re: [AFMUG] today's a big day on the stock market.....
That was a bad idea. I say Apple hits 115-120 before year end. On a 100k margin you could earn 14-19k return now until year end. Sept. Is a portfolio adjustment month so it naturally is a sell side month.

Re: [AFMUG] WTF apex 9 cable defects
We dropped Apex a couple years ago. IMHO it's not good outdoor cable. Switched to shielded Shireen and haven't looked back. In fact, knocking on wood now, we think the Shireen has protected us from ESD. We have not seen an AP OR SM damaged if the site has Shireen installed. We did see numerous issues with Apex.

Yes in training it was confirmed that the ePmP can get power and sync through CMM 3&4 but the 3 may be tricky to workaround. Also you can gps time your PTP link but it wasn't recommend.

Re: [AFMUG] Epmp results
It's cambium and works well. I understand a lot of guys are now going to it. Question though is the new AC gear worth waiting on at this point ?? My complaints are... Wish it had alignment tone. We are so use to our easy breezy alignment tool with FSK and OFDM. Going to the led lights was a step back I guess to help keep costs down. Who here has tried to align a KP REFLECTOR like that? That's dumb. Give me my headset back so I can listen to music. Some of the UI loads slow and is missing some nice features we see in the other cambium gear. Sync and throughput is good. Force 110 dish is small...wish it was bigger to add the db loss from taking Rockets down. Sorry I like carrier grade but without the price.
