60 kB Hard Disk Drive? WOW! Heh-heh. That was fun.Originally posted by DXT
Tips? Sure. Lurk. There are a number of quality threads here where questions of what antenna/wireless card combinations should be used, and intelligent answers are provided. You can search for them.
Two examples:

And somewhere, there is a really good thread from Thorn and Chris (I think) where a discussion of what combination of quality in cables, connectors, antenna, cards, provides the best results, and how having more watts does not mean better signal:noise advantage. (Sorry, did not find it, but you can.)
Oh yes, and one more thing. Don't post to old threads (like those with URL above) unless you have something useful to add. The older the thread, the more useful your suggestion should be. This is a pre-warning. Anything less than 2 weeks old is generally "fair game." -
thanks for the tips and pre-warning TheCotManComment

Come to think of it, I may have seen that thread I describe above while lurking in the NetStmbler forums. (Antenna FAQ)

Anything that uses NEMA 0183 serial output. Since both NS and kismet (well gpsd) use NEMA sentences, that's what you want.Originally posted by DXTThorn
