Just to confirm, all the numbers you are reporting where from Karlnet
TurboCell correct??  If this is the case, Doug (KN) has report to me
that all the Prism cards report back in the same way and that the
information can not always be trussed. They are looking into this and I
will update you as I know more. 

Did you notices a difference in performance?

Yes, please, is anyone else deploying this card with Karlnet TC?  I'd
love for the problem to be other than this card, as I really, really
need that output power.

I'm really surprised at the receive sensitivity being so depressed.  The
noise reported is -102dBm on the PRISM II card, and the signal is
reported at -101dB and the local signal reported at the laptop (Orinoco
card, 24dB parabolic, 4' pigtail, Karlnet TC running on XP) is -80dBm,
noise @ -99dBm,
S/N=19 dB, distance 7.5mi from AP, good LOS, no obstructions.   The AP
is an
AP-1000, two radios slotted, one Orinoco on CH6 as a backhaul running
into a horizontally polarized 24dB parabolic, the other, the PRISM II
100mW card as the PtMP on CH11 running into a 90 degree, vertical
polarized 15dB sector, running TC v4.02.
