"SansWire Networks will demonstrate their "Stratellite" technology next week. For those of you who aren't familiar with SansWire, they plan to build a wireless network with balloons or "airships" as they call them. "A Stratellite� is a high-altitude airship that when in place in the stratosphere will provide a stationary platform for transmitting various types of wireless communications services currently transmitted from cell towers and satellites. It is not a balloon or a blimp. It is a high-altitude airship." Looks like a blimp to me..."

I live in Glendale that is line-of-site to Mt. Wilson.  I got  a Linksys WET11 attached to a 10/100 switch and a Orinico gold PCMCIA card with my laptop.  What kind of antenna can I use to to link to the Stratellite's access point or may be Mt. Wilson?
