The XR5 is certified with a 31.4 dbi antenna. Nothing in the FCC
certification says what type of antenna. Someone I spoke with familiar with
the certification process said the type doesn't matter, only maximum
(perhaps minimum too, I can't remember) gains.

There is absolutely NO difference.. You are missing a critical point:
Show me a miniPCI wireless card which has a certification for an outdoor
AP style antenna. *That* is the point of this thread. None of the
miniPCI based systems are certified because noone has bothered to certify
the miniPCI wireless card with a correct set of antennas.
For instance, the Ubiquiti SR2 is only certified with a 3dbi omni from
Hyperlink. Other cards are similar.
