They never show up on monitor interfaces for all other hardware because there the hardware handles them. How is it that rt2x00 cannot handle rts? It has to at least know that an RTS was sent and to send the frame only after the CTS, and that needs to be a MAC function and cannot be implemented in host software. So, I'd think they shouldn't be reported at all. johannes
