Our local wireless group Starnet has been dead for 3 years as you may know. Me
and some friends have founded ZurekNet to fill in there space we have already
got one wireless link operational with my friend about a K away using some ancient
Aironet 4mbps Wireless Bridges and 2x microwave antennas.(ex austar) (Planning
to upgrade to WRT54G’s soon)<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;
font-family:Arial'>At the moment we are trying to complete our second link with
a distance of 3km. At my end we will be using a microwave directional antenna,
at the other end we would like to use a omni directional so other people can
connect there. (My friend is on a hill giving us good coverage over many
suburbs). We have found two different designs for homemade omnis on net<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
