How are your connecting cables? It's been a number of years since we used any Hypergain antennas because the connectors were made so badly. Same with some connectors (N type) that we made casually that lost signal in damp weather due to moisture wicking in. Shouldn't be that much fade due to atmospheric conditions at 2.4GHz, I thought.. Somewhere it looks like you're losing 28 dB between the cables and the trees. Also, I seem to remember that certain channels on the WaveLAN cards put out more rf power than others although I don't remember which are the best. Only a little bit but everything helps. > Hmmm, I'm not sure that's the problem.
