: Is it possible to use FreeBSD using two wireless cards, one as the TX

No. Speaking of the 802.11b cards, The firmware of the cards does TX
and RX to establish a connection. You'd need a special version of the
firmware that didn't do this (or one of the stupid cards that forces
the driver to do all the work), or some sort of special hardware.
I've seen non-802.11 wireless devices that can do this (well, they
were one card, and you tuned the radios independently and had two
antennas), but nothing that's been commecially available.
