Never mind, you said sectors. Those you can guess at.

For AF24 alignment and similar (rooftop to rooftop) at the 4 to 5km range,
you can tie a 2'x2' piece of cardboard spray painted orange to the far end
AF24, while it's powered off, to help new or less experienced people
acquire aim on the building.

tie a string to the remote antenna, its the best way
but if you do find a cood, affordable and reliable solution, let me know

Absolutely. With this compass you really can't be within 5-10 feet of
any large metallic object and expect good results. Walking 100' away
from the tower and shooting a back azimuth is the way to go.
However, it's usually good for 1 degree resolution if you know how to
use it.

Bill, have you had any issues with the tower itself causing "issues"
with the compass?

We eyeball it. We look at a map, identify landmarks, and align based on
that. For AF24 backhauls you can attach a scope on a rail to the side of it.
