Hi all, I've never used an Omnitik before for roof work. We're trying out the Omnitik + SXT combo in a location for roof to roof shots. I've figured out the grounding point for the SXT, however I can't seem to find a corresponding manual with that information for the Omnitik. Is it possible to

Agreed on the Shielded Cat5 While I am a big fan of UBNT radios, I am not sure about the ToughCable from them... so far they have had a lot of quality control issues. There are plenty of other cable mfg who have been making quality outdoor shielded cables one of such favorite of ours is
