I was about to post the same question.
I have a location where I need duals as well!

If you can find some old Metrocom sectors you will have what you need. I 
believe a bunch of them are still up at Blackjack if you want to take 
them down. Otherwise, Superpass makes some.

yeah but, most of the Metrocom stuff was around 20 degree beamwidth wide and 
60 degree or so beamwidth tall.
A lot of wasted spectrum up in the air, appropriate for a lot of small 
channel sectors and freq hoppers, but not so good for 3 usable DSSS channels 
and 360 deg coverage.

I had thought about those, but unfortunately they are only 30 degrees wide.

You'd have a fortune in Access points tied up in order to get a full circle,
even if you assumed they would really cover 60 degrees. 
Of course that almost sounds like a 6 way cluster of Canopy APs at that
point. 

Didn't you have some of the Superpass ones sitting in the office at Ravinia?
I remember somethng tall, skinny, and dual band. 

Speaking of Metricom- I recently autopsied a Metricom pole top unit. They
are pretty snazzy radios inside. It's a pity that they only achieved 128k
with them!  The radios have small patch antennas on the corners in addition
to the center vertical antenna.  I don't think that was well known.

If there is anyone on the list who was with Ricochet/Metricom back in the
day, I'd love to Email a bit with you!

Ralph
