STRONG 900MHz interference will kill the GPS signals on the ePMP, PMP,
Packetflux and Ubnt. I have two sites
where only the ePMP 2000 GPS works (and works awesome). One is a FM tower
with a licensed 900MHz feed
about 30 ft away and the other is the power company with 900MHz omnis
blasting away.

I haven't tried the ePMP 2000 without the sector to enclose the GPS puck so
I don't know if is the way they are
shielding the puck or the cable.
