A break through:-) Sending this command "iwconfig ra0 mode Managed key off" enables wicd to make a working connection. Whether this is an anomaly for rt2860sta I don't know . E.g. instead of doing:
ifconfig ra0 up
iwconfig ra0 mode Managed
['iwconfig', 'ra0', 'essid', 'kastrupBG', 'channel', '7', 'ap', '00:20:A6:56:58:5F']

wicd should do it this way:
ifconfig ra0 up
iwconfig ra0 mode Managed key [off|WEP] *)
['iwconfig', 'ra0', 'essid', 'kastrupBG', 'channel', '7', 'ap', '00:20:A6:56:58:5F']

*) if using WPA or WPA2 key off should be fired too.
