There should be zero problems with 802.11B/G transmissions
on channels 1, 6, and 11 geographically overlapping.  The
energy transmitted in those channels should be completely
discrete.  Where did you hear this?

(Should we make a new discussion list for Cisco WLAN products?
If so, what should we call it?  cisco-wlan?  cisco-wifi?
cisco-802.11?)

Cheers,

Aaron
