The only time you can use 4 channels on the same tower is if there is plenty of isolation between antennas.  Like an example of a water tower.  the steel water tank should provide plenty of isolation between antennas.  Using opposite polarity can also help.  But if you put 4 antennas on a typical lattice tower you'll create your own inteference as the system gets busier.

I posted info on this a few weeks back.  I currently employ this channel
method.  It seems to work great with no slowdown that I have perceived or
that I can tell by running Qcheck tests.  
We have radios around here on 1-4-8-11.  This is the only way we could
coordinate channels with other 2.4 users in the area.

Has anyone implimented the 4 channel theory yet? (1,4,7,11 - 1,4,8,11 -
1,5,8,11)
Any successes or failures?
