Got it !!!

ath5k just got diversity support :-)

When i put the pigtail on the aux antenna i got 25Mbits with 5213A,
LoL  they 've puted the sticker in the wrong place (ubiquity SRC) !
After checking out regdumps madwifi also used antenna 2 as the default
antenna. So i did a little searching and found why fast diversity
wouldn't work for ath5k (after playing with capability calls i know
how to enable/disable diversity through register 0xa208 and it's
enabled by default while we write initial register settings), we were
setting AR5K_PHY_ANT_SWITCH_TABLE_x wrong (the same value for both
TABLE_0 and 1). After i fixed it everything worked out of the box, i
tried to switch antenna again etc and it's much better...

Phewww, i was afraid it was something much more complicated...

Now up for 2112a rf_buffer settings, so we can fix b/g support, thanx
to John i now have a b/g only card to play with so it's just a matter
of time, but i'll also need a dump for a b/g only card with 2413/4.
