Mike,

That is disappointing to hear. In my opinion a horrible design for N 
Chipsets.

I recognize that it works that way now, But is that really hardware 
inforced?
When the radio is set to use 802.11A mode, the MIMO hardware has no problem 
selecting a specific antenna port. That would infer software could control 
the hardware? Could it be fooled?

I guess the work around could be to stay with 802.11a on the MIMO stuff. Is 
802.11a working with Airmax (TDMA) yet?
Or.... We'd just have to standardize on Rockets for the CPEs to, so we could 
atleast hard set at install which PolAntenna was Chain0.
We could live without the software pol change on the fly. But we'd need to 
at minimum maintain the ability to set the pol for Chain0, at install time..

Can the Nano be adapted inside? Are the NANO antennas hard soldered? Or 
attached with pigtails?
The Nano was such an exciting configuraton, because its sleak apearance and 
low cost dual pol antenna.

While we are on topic....  For Nano-M, which polarity is on Chain0?

PS. I search the Wiki and Manuals for hours on that question, it would 
probably make sense to make that easier to find that answer..
