Replacement antenna for W800RF

[BraveSirRobbin]

I found one of my pro palmpads yesterday - I should fire that up and see what kind of distance I get. Regardless, I definitely recommend a better antenna - either BSR's or the radio shack one - whatever increases range - which in turn increases reliability.

I made THIS antenna described in my How-To, mounted it in my attic and ran RG59 coax to my W800 and got THIS DISTANCE with a 'slightly' modified palm pad remote (its operating voltage is just under nine volts). B)
