[ogWiFi] Looking for Directional Antenna

[Ian Gough]

Ajmal,

I remember you telling us about this at the ogWifi meeting. Thanks for
the offer, but the customer is looking for an outdoor solution. We
have been offered an exterior directional antenna that I am picking up
tonight.

Thanks for the link, it looks very useful and I have bookmarked it.
