If Team P.A.D.'s M.O. was the same as it was last year, maybe they used amps to ensure LOS and alignment, then established the link again after they removed the amps.
Read about what they did in 2004: http://www.wifiworldrecord.com/2004archive.htm.
Mike at Wi-Fi Toys has more info about what happened this year: http://www.wifi-toys.com/wi-fi.php.
