probably b43. p54usb uses static scaling constants to calculate
signal & noise dbm, instead of finding the correct values from the devi=
ce eeprom
(Note: Link Quality doesn't substract the noise so it could be off even=
 more).

However, in my testing it was only a few +/- dbm(s), what's your readin=
g?
