I think there is a source of interference that's "behind" the A loc
antenna. I mostly fixed the problem by turning off all the "turbo"
extensions, running in stock 802.11G mode and moving to ch 9. The
turbo stuff only works on ch 6 (I think because it uses additional
spectrum that overlaps 5 and 7 (?)) and everybody's AP is on 6. 
Thanks for the suggestions.
