Before anyone starts throwing up 2.4 or 5.8 at the Westin, please keep in
mind that there are 2.4 and 5.8 APs facing North on the top of the Bank of
America Tower (as well as South, East, NE and SE).   There's also our
5.3/5.8 backup radio to our 18Ghz licensed link at the Westin.  We'd really
need to figure out some way to have folks co-exist.   The spectrum's really
dirty in the downtown area and Clearwire's giving us enough fits as is.
