In reference to cantenna's:
(From http://www.oreillynet.com/cs/weblog/view/wlg/448)

"Over a clear line of sight, with short antenna cable runs, a 12db to
12db can-to-can shot should be able to carry an 11Mbps link well over
ten miles." 

Seriously this insistance that because it's commercial it must be better
is like advocating that windows is better because it is commerical.

I probably wouldnt use a cantenna for any distance, but it's not that
much harder to build a yagi, helical, or omni.

:D
