Yeah, that's the thing Mike - the thought my managers had was that an integrated unit wouldn't take up nearly as much real estate on the tower. Something like what Eric mentioned would be excellent, were it to work like independent radios would work. Eric, I'll definitely check into the Ubiquiti and Ruckus models. I was unaware that such a beast actually existed, so your post has great information to know.
