That just boggles my mind. Why doesn't the 450SM work with both antenna types then? Why would a cheap $100 SM radio have a more sophisticated antenna design than a $250 FPGA radio? I can personally attest that you CAN NOT hook up a 2.4ghz 450 slant SM to an AP that's running a V/H antenna. Tried that with horrible results....
