Mac,
Before you discard the idea of using three 120* sectors are you
absolutely certain that the "separation" issue is really due to the
antennas not being far enough apart? Have you thoroughly looked at other
reasons why there could be interference between three APs like:
1. Using three cards on a single motherboard in one enclosure without
sufficient shielding between them.
2. Using three APs that are configured on frequencies that are too close
together and are interfering with each other?
I guess what I'm asking is (before you go spend money on antennas that
may or may not solve the problem) what equipment are you currently
using, how is it configured, and how far apart can you actually get
three sector antennas on the 25G tower?

Does anyone on list have a set of 2.4GHz 180* sector antennas they would
like to brag on? I have two towers that need to be sectored out and I am on
the hunt. I would like to have as much gain as possible at the antenna.
Any suggestions, comments and feed back are greatly appreciated as I have
never deployed 180* sectors, but we have always used either Omni's or 3 120*
sectors. These towers are just Rohn 25G and I cant seem to get enough
separation up top for the 120* sectors. Been there done that and still
fighting the issues it causes by mounting the 3 120* sectors too close to
one another.
Thanks folks,
Mac
