Yip seen that one, seattle wireless site has lots of good info too.  I
have made some high gain antennas using the camping cups but haven't had
a chance to test them.  They have been designed with local conditions in
mind as it is to go up on a hill behind my parents house.  Unfortunately
as I said I haven't had a chance to use them as I found my problem
wasn't going to be getting the signal 11Kms from town to farm but
getting power 500m up to the repeater site:).  Well getting it there
cost effectively that is.  It's still on the project plan for when I go
home next.

Steve.
