Today, December 26, 2008 I was going to install this Wifi antenna on my ham radio antenna at 40 feet above ground. I decided against installing this antenna today because the South wind is blowing at 30+ miles per hour (MPH). I do not want to be up on an antenna while the wind is [...]

You may remember me posting earlier about my Internet giving me a hard time. I was fed up with the never ending going off line despite paying for AT&T’s elite DSL that was supposed to give us the fasted speed. I was really losing my patience with losing web access while all my other Internet [...]
