[CUWiN-Dev] Beacon packets from tcpdump

One more thing I've noticed with the very latest builds (0.5.8+) and the 
16-Aug snapshot BSD sources is that the number of beacons I'm seeing from 
a 'tcpdump -ne -y ieee802_11_radio' is drastically reduced.  I had been 
parsing the dump periodically to log signal levels, SSIDS, BSSIDS, etc. 
I'm still seeing a typical flood of beacons from our neighbors' access 
points, but those from our SSID relatively trickle in.

Maybe this is the result of a deliberate change, but I thought I'd mention 
it.
