What type of external? Omni, Yagi, Panel, what gain ?
Is there a signal strength indicator to use to aim the antenna ? On both
USB and PCMCIA cards ?
What is the gain on the USB internal antenna for comparison ?
What about the home appliance ? Does it have an internal panel ?
Also, it appears only half of the coverage area in Philly is active,
any idea when
the suburbs ( west chester, collegeville ) are going live ?
