If you select to display a custom column with parameter "radiotap.datarate"
from "preference --> column" menu, the displayed column shows values exactly
double than value shown in "packet details" pane inside "Radiotap Header".
For example if "Datarate" value shown in the "packet details" pane
inside "Radiotap Header" is 3.0Mb/s you'll see 6 in the column
The value in the packet details pane is probably the accurate one.
If you see in epan/dissectors/packet-radiotap.c that the call for adding the
datarate to the protocol details pane divides the value rate by 2.
The custom column code is probably confused by this.
