I have an idea that would work for finding the location, but my picture wont upload, it says, this document contains no data, s i cant do it. If your interested, AIM at Skirecs or ask at skirecs@gmail.com

I really think it is plausible under good conditions to vaugly position the AP using this syste, but its hard to type, you really need the pic.
It requres two passes through the AP, on different course, maybe even if the GPS is very accurate you cloud use the oppostire sides of the street.
You set a signal strengh level, and mark the two times you get that level, on the way in and on the way out. For the second pass, use teh same level and take antohte 2 point. So you have 4 points, theoretically position on a circle eminating from the AP. Plot them in a graphing calculater, use a circle regression and get hte center

Hope this is clear.
