[HamWAN PSDR] Configuration failure

[Bob Sampson]

John,

They are both running.  I did not do anything special other than the client-configuration and manually setting the country to no country via the Wireless tab when the script failed during the item 21 configuration.

> One out-of-the-blue question: Do you have both chains enabled on the radio? The factory default setting (for the RB912UAG-5HPnD at least) is to just enable chain 0.  Last time I checked, the configuration instructions on the HamWAN web site don't enable the second chain (chain 1).  Enabling the second chain can make a pretty substantial difference in net signal margin and stability.
