Matt, nausea can be fixed with realism. I have used nothing but 5GHz backhauls for 8 years. Only in the last 2 years have we gone to any 5 GHz Client other than business. I have 15 towers and each has at least 2 paths in and out for redundancy. So that is 35+ Links. Most are 5 miles or more so not an AF24 candidate in my rain zone. I can't afford to just go out and buy $175,000 worth of licensed backhauls. But for the price of one Licensed link I can buy 2.5- 5GHz links (AF5, Mimosa, or whoever) saving me $100,000 when all is said and done.
Would I prefer to do all licensed and save all the 5GHz for Customer? Heck Yes!! But that is not the reality I live in.
