[ML-Hams] Fwd: New Wifi Signal at the shop

[Jeff Cotten]

Currently I can only get 16% signal strength from the ham shack to the
office.  Getting signal outside of the sheet metal building I'm sure is
worse :)

I'm talking to these dudes right now about what kind of magmount antenna we
should hook up to it so that the signal can be picked up by anyone else in
the 5 points area:
