Marlon, We've had quite a few deployed (100 or so, some for 6 months), not seen a week transmitter yet, all failures were ethernet related and normally out of the box they failed (1 in the field). The levels are normally within 1/2 db at the tower vs. the CPE, unless there is a tilt issue (AP antenna too much downtilt).
