What makes a strong 25P duty description?

Microwave systems duty descriptions should reflect line-of-sight communications operations, equipment maintenance, and link management responsibilities. Reference specific microwave systems, availability requirements, and the formations supported. Use signal and microwave communications terminology appropriate to the role.
