I always look for the fiber splice cases on the aerial.

I forget what movie I was watching a while ago, but it was set in the very 
early 90s. And I caught at least two cell towers, like the big big tall guide 
towers with multiple rings in at least two shots.

  If you look carefully in many historical movies you may see modern day 
wireless equipment in the backgrounds, etc.  I get a chuckle sometimes when set 
designers go to great lengths to make sure the cars on the street are of the 
right decade but there is a Ruckus Cable Wi-Fi AP on the cable line.

    Ok, the first one, maybe that is a legit connection, and they 'couldn't be 
without internet while you people are here filming'  But the 2nd looks like a 
purpose built set.  If they were put there by the set dressing team, Props to 
them for thinking about it, and even cabling it in.  

    Even better if that was their internet feed for the location while 
shooting.

      I can't travel anywhere without seeing Ubiquiti devices.  UniFi AP's at 
the zoo, AirFiber between buildings at a waterpark, AirMax on towers. 

      My guess it's accidentally in the background and not actually product 
placement.  You notice it because you know what it is.  If the camera just 
panned over an antenna mount in the background then a HAM watching the same 
episode would have said, "oooh a 2 meter repeater"

        Has anyone been watching the newest season of 'Doctor Who'?  In the 
last 2 episodes, there are couple second long shots where the center focus 
seems to be an unlabeled UBNT Powerbeam.  No other reason for it to be in the 
shot. 

        Do I just notice it because I'm looking for it?
