How can I tell if a client is connected with 5ghz or 2.4ghz and when they roam between them?

Turn logging on (either on the AP or ZD) and you'll see entries like this when a client connects:
Nov 20 05:53:01 RuckusAP daemon.info hostapd: wlan0: STA 5c:96:9d:73:59:9f IEEE 802.11: associated
Nov 20 05:53:01 RuckusAP daemon.info hostapd: wlan0: STA 5c:96:9d:73:59:9f WPA: pairwise key handshake
the wlan0 in this case is my 2.4 radio - if it were wlan8 it would be my 5Ghz

I also see in my ZD's dashboard log entries, something like:
2013/11/21 07:54:11 Low guest AP[AP-14194] radio [11a/n] detects User[guest] in WLAN[P-Net] roams from AP[AP-14194]
