Exactly. As yo can see, the signal is reasonable and changes over time
and space. Noise is always zero and INT is always 100. Clearly, your
patch is doing exactly what is was intended to do.

> ifconfig ath0 list scan
SSID            BSSID              CHAN RATE  S:N   INT CAPS
babcom          00:0f:b5:1e:04:ba   11   54M 36:0   100 EP

My interface is a 5212.
ath_hal: 0.9.16.16 (AR5210, AR5211, AR5212, RF5111, RF5112, RF2413, RF5413)
ath0: <Atheros 5212> mem 0xa8400000-0xa840ffff irq 11 at device 2.0 on pci4
ath0: Ethernet address: 00:14:a4:60:f2:e3
ath0: mac 5.9 phy 4.3 radio 3.6

Thanks again. Any problems I am seeing don't appear to me to be related
to your patch which is why I recommended sending it to the author.
