Re: linksys high gain antenna

	I noticed these RP-TNC antennas at "Best" Buy a few months ago, I was 
intrigued...'til I saw they were asking about $70.  I think just today 
I just saw some for sale online that would have been about thirty 
somewhat dollars after a rebate.  Believe the antennas are 7.5 db.  
Anyone have experience trying them out yet?  In my experience I was 
impressed by the change in signal from the stock antennas to the 
5.5db(I believe) after market rubber duckies offered at Radio Shack.
	On the subject of Linksys I saw they also have antenna stand for gear 
that uses RP-SMA antennas.  I was thinking much of the signal gain of 
obtaining better antenna placement would be offset by the long length 
of the cabling(more than a few feet).  Guess, it would really depend 
upon the scenario...
