802.11b Antenna Shootout
http://www.turnpoint.net/wireless/has.html
While not strictly a Linux link, today’s GnomeCLICK is clearly indicative of the spirit of Linux - the constant and ongoing effort to make the technology around us work better. Better, even if the improvements involve Pringles cans.
The 802.11b Antenna Shootout stacked a Lucent commercial wireless antenna against the kind of DIY antennas Linux users can really appreciate; two designs using Pringles cans, two coffee can designs, a Hunt’s pasta sauce can, and a 40 oz. Nalley “Big Chunk” beef stew can. The results are, well, truly in the DIY spirit and certainly worth the attention of Lucent.
