Honestly, we just pull up Google Earth, draw a line from the tower with the proper heading and look for landmarks against which to aim for sectors and coarse adjustment of BHs. I don’t know if it’s any more accurate, but it’s definitely on the same cost plane as standing in a field.

We have been looking at a few of the obviously expensive options, Sunsight AAT-30, 3Z Antena Aligner, Multiwave SmartAlign to rent. That being said we are also looking for a less expensive, but more accurate than standing in a field looking back at the antenna, option to purchase. What are some of you using to accurately align your AP sectors and do initial BH deployment?
