Jijo,

In osmo-bts config you always specify "bts 0". If you need several BTS
on the same PC, use different config files for them. You can pass a
config file name with a command line option to osmo-bts.

All BTS must have different ipa unit-id - that's how they are
differentiated in osmo-nitb (openbsc) configuration.
