well of course, but the original question was related to range...  There are
more factors to take in consideration when making a sector-omni decision,
but both have it places...

I only use omnis in micro pops that serve a 1 mile radius or less, anything
beyond that is sectorized

Sure it can, but the omni is going to pick up more noise than the sector
will and cause a performance hit to the client.

tanks and sides of buildings giving me inexpensive towers.

three of there wisp series sectors and be done with it. You pay an extra
$500 for a fancy mounting apparatus to put them all together. Trust me there
is no difference in the performance, or appearance of the antenna's. Jason

patterns to exactly match your coverage area.  Most everyone that I know
that's used them say they out perform the equivalent gain omni by some
degree.
