Yup, that's what we did... I would've just used the Ubiquiti dishes, had they been available.
It's just a question of how many AF11's end up replacing old 11ghz links vs new links, or replacing other stuff. If I had been replacing an 11ghz link and already had dishes in place, I most certainly would've wanted adapters... even if it cost just as much as buying a whole new dish it would be well worth it to not have to drag new dishes up the tower and re-align them.
