Yes, unless you have a Mac with a device that can remain associated

can).
The Atheros-based adapter on my MacBook Pro, and its driver, don't
appear to allow the adapter remain associated with a network while the
adapter is in monitor mode.
It looks as if the Broadcom-based adapter on an iMac to which I have
access, and its driver, *does* allow the adapter to remain associated
with a network while it's in monitor mode.
