[MLB-WIRELESS] Silicon Chip revisited

Hmmm... making a wave guide for wireless networking AND how a microwave oven
has one also, in the same issue. Are they suggesting combining the two? ;)

 Maybe this could be some sort of AP killer? Someone else's signal is
walking all over your wireless link? Easy fix! Just point your modified
microwave oven waveguide at their antenna and see how it handles a 1000W of
power on 'high'.

 Stick a few in your car and wipe out lots of APs as you casually drive by.
Gives a new meaning to the term 'war' drive.

Regards,

Phwoar, not only does the mag show you how to build a slotted waveguide and
a weatherproof "ant cap" bipolar, it also guts a microwave oven and goes
thru a process of explaining how the magnetron works. The radio waves feed
into the microwave via a small waveguide antenna.
Anyone game enought to pull an old microwave apart and see how the antenna
fits together? Then see if it will work with 802.11b? May be a cheap source
of antennas?
