Ours are normally the opposite. We have more climbs for shorted/water in cables than we do for dead radios. We might have 1-2 dead APs a year.

If it's Ubnt it's probably a dead radio. Probably 1/100000 chance the cable shorted.

    Yep, could either be a dead AP or a shorted cable... I don't think
    there's any way to tell from the ground.

    It is a lot harder to make that decision when someone else is
    doing the climbing... I wouldn't ask anyone to go up in weather I
    wouldn't climb in myself, but then again, I've also climbed in
    weather I wouldn't tell someone else to go up in. I don't think
    there really is a good rule of thumb, a lot depends on what the
    climber is comfortable with, and experience.

    The radio is pulling too much current.  Probably it is an
    overload/short.  It will fade out and then come on full
    brightness. This was the green LED and may not exist with the LED
    anymore, especially since it's a different type of LED.

        its only 100 feet, but its a shitty tower to climb, all
        angled, one of those tripod ones that suck when theyre wet.
        Ive slipped on this tower
        new as in this would be his first unattended climb since training
        im assuming its just a bad radio (flashing ubnt power supply,
        but could be a failed cable) on an omni

            I would worry more about gusts than steady wind,
            especially for rope work or complex positioning. Might
            need additional ground crew and taglines, maybe a second
            climber.
            When you say new climber, how new?  What kind of
            training/certification? Ultimately you are depending on
            the climber to call it off if it’s not safe, and a newbie
            might not have the experience to know when it’s not safe.
            If you’re talking about today, at least it’s been way
            above freezing the past 2 days, so the likelihood of rain
            freezing to the tower should be minimized.
            Also, how high are you sending him? Big difference between
            100 and 300 feet.

                Depends what i'm climbing for. Repair or upgrade?
                Is there rain/sleet/snow mixed with the wind?
