Morning Edition on NPR had this sweet little story this morning. I'm not familiar with WiFi -- is that a Bluetooth-type device? I suspect the guy may be busting the Part 15 rules with his antennas. Dunno if he's a ham, but the program detailed some of the typical "ham ingenuity" make-do capers we all come up with at Field Day etc. Bruce (PS If you caught NPR's Weekend Edition Saturday, you heard the daughter of a friend telling about how "all globes have Colby KS on them". Actually, it's just Replogle globes....) http://www.npr.org/ramfiles/me/20020212.me.08.ram Wireless Internet NPR's John McChesney visits Aspen, Colorado, where entrepreneur Jim Selby has set up a wireless network that gives residents quick access to the Internet. Selby has put directional wireless antennas on about 40 homes in the hills surrounding Aspen, so nearly the whole town can receive signals that provide his free wireless Web connection. To form the network, he uses a WiFi (why-fy) transmitter. A new company called "Boingo" makes software that would enables wireless access to WiFi service providers across the country. (6:11)
