I haven't used any of the XRs, but I'm pretty sure there's no flat surface,
so the WB scope probably isn't going to work. I assume the AF60XR comes
with a plastic sight, like all the other UBNT 60ghz radios do these days,
which is typically good enough to get you close enough fine tune with
signal, and yes, the alignment brackets are pretty decent (again, I haven't
used the XR, but I'm assuming it's similar to the others). They do have
some beam forming, which makes them relatively easy to aim compared to
other mmwave radios... they don't need to be anywhere near as precise as
something like an AF24.

The original AF60 is junk compared to the AF60LR, WaveLR and WavePro
(especially the bracket, but also, in general).
