As far as we know, only NF calibration interferes with RX/TX so we can leave the queues enabled for the other calibrations. BTW: Stopping the queues is not enough for avoiding transmissions, since there might be packets in the queue + beacons are also sent regularly! But i leave it like this until we have a better solution (stopping TX DMA?).
