[MLB-WIRELESS] Galaxy Antennas & the "black box"

[Goa Trance]

I have 2 of the same antenna's, also from Geelong.  I've heard someone on the list
sells replacement down converters that make it work for WLAN for $80.  Check the 
list archives.  I havent bothered with them just yet, I'm still waiting on some cards.
Let me know how you go.

Gerard.
