Luke,
The unit itself is very reliable however if the link is mis-engineered
or mis-aligned then it will be unreliable. My guess is that the vendor
reporting the problem has either mis-engineered the link and is trying
to make it work over too long of a distance OR they installed the link
without a true line-of-sight path. Any obstruction between the two units
will prevent reliable operation. By "any" I mean anything with a
physical dimension to it - a pole, a tree, a paint bucket, etc.

We have decided to look into this particular BH. In doing so, there is one of
our vendors that are reporting problems with this unit in rain, snow and fog.
Most people I have talked with say that will NOT happen and swear to their
dependability. This may be more true given that our link is less than 100yds
away and on the roofs of two very high buildings. So, without more chatting
here's the questions:
1. what's everyone's opinion on this- any users of it that can tell me those
people having problems are aiming wrong or something?
2. What's your experience with it?
