The Siklu adjustments on mounts are very accurate...the trick is to make sure mount is solid on structure...I mean solid...the Bridgewave mount we used three years ago were more difficult to align as bolt tightening moved the dish. Longest like was just under two miles It was a large project at Fort Bliss...we took three months to install hundreds of Siklu and Bridgewave PTP links, several hundred Cisco APs and Ubiquiti 3.65 links ...
