No, I don't expect to make any big money selling radios or doing installs. If they want to use off-the-shelf WiFi equipment, that's OK with me. The free-riders aren't the direct source of my present and future consulting work. Their employers and friends' employers are, though. I'm in a small community, so word of mouth recommendations are a good source of referrals. - John -- general wireless list, a bawug thing <http://www.bawug.org/> [un]subscribe: http://lists.bawug.org/mailman/listinfo/wireless
