Thanks, this is what I did. (ie run two instances of hostapd). But is it 
possible to run just one?

in the other case then, when I need two ssid on the same radio? This 
should be simple I guess?

and finally a not so related question. I guess my radio (AR9300) cant 
runt 2.4 and 5ghz at the same time?
