I didn't change the interval, i just cleaned up the code, as you can
see that value was put there before (through a macro in base.h -i just
removed the macro). Anyway i'll check out calibration stuff more
careful because periodic calibration doesn't seem right if we change
rates etc (we had a discussion on madwifi-devel on this and i'm still
searching it).
