	One issue did completely slip my mind.  I do have to set the card
a turbo channel BEFORE setting "mediaopt turbo" (its done with "ifconfig"
on NetBSD) -- I also see a HAL error 12 if I try to set the channel after
entering turbo mode (actually my bring up script - /etc/ifconfig.ath0,
does a "ifconfig ath0 -chan" (which removes the channel setting, letting
the station roam freely) after setting turbo mode and the driver and HAL
then jump once or twice a day between APs on different channel - some with
directional antennas).

	Maybe the test for which channels are allowed isn't properly checking
the "flags" field for the "turbo" bit;  I `know' it doesn't when scanning,
because I "see" 11[abg] non-turbo AP if I scan with the card not it turbo
mode - in "turbo" mode I see my 11a turbo APs but nothing else and I never
"see" my 11g AP if its set to "Static Turbo", "Dynamic Turbo" shows up as
a normal 11g AP.
