It took as long as till today for me to get my hands back on that
HW. What I did I took HAL from your website, replaced
/usr/src/sys/contrib/dev/ath
directory and did
make buildkernel && make install kernel
(the machine is normal 7.0-RELEASE so I've build standard GENERIC
kernel with only HAL changed)

The cards (this time I did the test with both SILVER and GOLD
version of that Proxim card) obviously don't work even with this HAL.
I've tried to gather as much information as possible - see below.
Let me know if you need something more.

Thanks a lot,
Petr
