Depending on the cost of whatever sector you are looking at, I think the extra cash for the third antenna and radio would offset the amount of aggravation. Take it from someone who is "cheap", just spend the extra cash. Been there, done that, have less hair over it. (That's why I wear a hat)

I would hope your at -6dB or -8dB at that point. For instance... check out this sector... its -6dB off at 180 degrees http://www.mtiwe.com/uploads/product/127.pdf So your 12dBi sector is now a 6dBi sector...
