O.K. So you want a bad as* card for wardriving? What you need is a Senao/Engenious? card with 2 antenna ports on it.
These cards have a better sensitivity than just about anything out there
next to Demark
and they also have 200mW of power which is the most powerful out there.
A couple of comments about the Senao:
As for sensitivity, the Senao card has better *published* receive sensitivity specs. It seems pretty good but I am not sure it beats the Cisco for RX sensitivity.
TX power does indeed seem to be about +23 dbm.
If you use only one antenna it must be connected to the left MMCX connector (orientation: card in your hand, face up, connectors at top). I have had problems with no receive if only one antenna is used and connected to the other connector.
As for general performance, I use a pair on a 4.5 nm link with an 11dbi omni at one end and a 10dbi patch antenna at the other. I get 11Mbps. This is an over-water path.
