That sounds like two problems:

       1) not capturing many packets;

       2) not seeing radiotap headers.

I can't address the first problem - that's probably either a driver
issue or an adapter issue.

For the second problem, you *might* have to set the "monitor_type"
parameter to 3.  What version of the kernel are you using?
