Can the new UBNT M line gear be used as an 802.11n access point
without the TDMA? I'm assuming the TDMA protocol is proprietary and
that when using the TDMA protocol normal 802.11a/b/g gear doesn't
work. I'm also assuming the TDMA can be turned off which I realize
might not be the case.

Yes by default it act as a regular 11n unit to get TDMA function you would
enable airMAX function on the units. Kind of like with MikroTik you would
enable Nstrem to get that functionality. As far as I know these two systems are
not compatible.
11n is backwards compatible with a/b/g

Were you speaking of the pneumatic mast in my pics, or of the wonder pole?

Be aware though, you cannot mix and match at the same time.For example:
1 Airmax AP and 10 Airmax enabled CPE = Airmax network.
1 Airmax AP, 9 Airmax enabled CPE and 1 802.11G/N = 802.11G/N network.

When you enable airmax on the AP, only airmax capable stations will see
it and can connect to it.
Airmax capable clients will be able to connect to non-airmax enabled
AP's, they recognize airmax/non-airmax alike.
