[HCARC] HELP!! WIFI Amplifier / Range Extender

[Ray Owen]

Hill Country Electronics/Radio Shack here carries Ubiquity wifi radios.  
They're expensive, but with Line of Sight, are good for about 10 miles.  
Rock walls really kill wifi, so this sucker works great out here.  I use 
one to push wifi across a 35 acre field for my gps tablet.
