I'm sure they stopped doing that because all the sensitive engineers who
are just out of college now can't handle being told that their ideas are
bad.
I think the last time they had an event which was similar was when the
original god-awful EPMP 1000 dishes had just come out. The meeting was
in January, we had one with and tried to get the engineers to come out
and assemble it on the tailgate in the parking lot with us. They refused.

They used to also have groups of users voice opinions about the roadmap.

I had the same head scratching moment with the uGPS before it was
called the cnPulse. The design is awkward to say the least. It didn't
have any idiot lights which was difficult for the tower crew to
troubleshoot. We quickly removed it and went to a RackIjector. Best
decision ever.

We’ve always used PacketFlux sync products with Cambium radios, I
have a somewhat unusual install involving a 450i and an omni and
wanted AUX port sync and decided to try a CnPulse instead of
ordering a Syncbox Jr. AUX port version.
Am I wrong, or did the Cambium team responsible for this product
royally mess up?
1) Big multilanguage instruction sheet, nowhere shows how to
assemble or install the product.
2) Instruction sheet has generic photo of Cambium radios
installed at a tower but does not show a CnPulse.
3) Bracket is stupid and for some reason they decided the cable
glands should come out horizontally not at the bottom.
4) Screws for attaching bracket (or flipping it around to mount
on the opposite side of the pipe) require a T15 bit, because every
tower climber carriers Torx bits.
5) Label for which port is which is on the back where the bracket
attaches. Yes there are also labels molded into the plastic
housing, but the grey on grey is almost invisible.
The bracket is so stupid it’s tempting to just electrical tape the
unit to the pipe. Except if we pointed the cable glands down,
would it still see the satellites?
