Hi,

Just as a reference, I've committed the strong signal diversity
twiddle to -HEAD as well as AR5413 radar parameter support (in case
you come across one of those.)

That completes my (current) round of help with this, at least until I
get back from my trip.

Of course, it'd be really great if someone signed up for working on a
BSD licenced radar pattern detector.. :)
