I configured my AP with the conf file below.  Radio is configured
for HT20.  Is that what you mean??

On channel 3 (off-channel), probe request is sent at 1Mbps
On channel 8 (on-channel), probe request (and deauth) is sent at 1Mbps.

Start on 5 GHZ AP with HT Only set.  Scan.  What rate are probes sent
at for 2.4 GHz?

(Using slightly different hostapd.conf config file, of course)

On 5Ghz channels, they are sent at 6Mbps
On channel 3 (2.4Ghz), they are sent at 1Mbps


That seem right?

Thanks,
Ben
