   Update for Jeff and Rod:   
      
   Using that bullet and planar antenna above, I finally got around to   
   physically mounting the Ubiquiti Bullet M2HP connected to a 14dBi planar   
   antenna outside on a pole stuck into the leftover hole from an ancient   
   15-foot wide satellite dish which was removed long ago.   
      
      
   Here are some LOS Android-based received-signal-strength measurements for   
   Jeff Liebermann and Rod Speed where I set up *exactly* what Rod Speed wants   
   to accomplish.   
      
      
   Those measurements are roughly at about 300 feet LOS (-50dBm to -60dBm) and   
   at about 100 feet LOS (-35dBm to -40dBm) distance from the radio  which is   
   wired to the SOHO router and set up as an "access point" (which is what Rod   
   wants to do).
