Re: [AFMUG] Dual polarity omni
Surely UBNT can make one invulnerable to 100,000V! Good to hear. Just about to put the order through. I've had good luck with the few ARC panels I've used. - Original Message - From: Mathew Howard via Af To: af@afmug.com Sent: Tuesday, October 14, 2014 11:52 AM Subject: Re: [AFMUG] Dual polarity omni I've got a couple of the ARC 5ghz omnis up... no problems with them, so far.

I've used a few different brands of dual polarity omnis, and the only ones I've ever had any issues with were UBNT - that being the cap coming off one and it filling up with water, and another one getting blown to bits by lightning, but I can't really blame UBNT for that... -- From: Af [af-boun...@afmug.com] on behalf of Glen Waldrop via Af [af@afmug.com] Sent: Tuesday, October 14, 2014 11:40 AM To: af@afmug.com Subject: [AFMUG] Dual polarity omni The tower that got taken out by the straight line wind was built with sectors expecting a decent load.
