Unfortunately the manufacturer who seems to miss crucial parts or ship
me the wrong units (if they ship to the correct location) on a
consistent basis is frequently late as well. So I stick tend to stick
with UBNT for UBNT applications.

Just open up all boxes and check all your parts before you go out.
Nuts. Brackets. Cables.
I've never had a problem with missing parts on UBNT sectors.

even if you do have the right parts, it's still a nuisance to deal
with getting sent the wrong stuff... it can happen with anything
though - for instance, I once got sent a 5ghz UBNT omni instead of
2.4ghz... I'm pretty sure I would've been better off with the
wrong pigtails ;-)

If you get out to the job and don't have the right pigtail because
the vendor didn't ship the right one, it's not the vendors fault.
You should have several spares of every flavor in your truck. If
not, it's a safe bet Murphy will show up throwing his laws around :-)

Same radios but I had the opposite experience. I had one at -35,
maybe the RF armor requires both of those dumb machine screws to work.

UBNT to KPP straight up, kpp. UBNT with armor vs KPP, we
prefer UBNT
because of the extra horizontal separation required with KPP.
On a grainleg
platform, we've seen kpp sectors see one another at -30 or
below, where UBNT
see one another in the -50's. On a tower without standoffs and
KPP, forget
it, you will have problems.
2.4 in 10mhz cw.

one obvious advantage with the KPP is that the connectors or
all covered by
the shielding, so you eliminate any potential issues with
water in the
connectors, and you can throw away that annoying cover on the
Rocket over
the ethernet port.

Mathew, these are for 2. GHz Rockets.
I was wondering about the shielding as well. Unless you're in
an area with a
ton of interference... But as was mentioned, the KP omni with
the shielding
is the same price basically as the same UBNT model without it.
I'm all about
using stuff that's included at no additional charge :)
