I am planning to do a mod to my USBBT100 to add the ability to do an external antenna. I have a nice mag mount that I would like to couple to the BT100 for just that purpose. I just need a short pigtail to solder to the BT100 that has a male N connector.

I am going shopping on the Web this weekend to find a pig tail to mate the Female N connector on my mag mount to the MMCX connector Ubiquity card. This will replace the omni-directional that I have already. The second connector goes to a high gain antenna (either 802.11a or 802.11b/g).

Well, there is an Apple Store in the largest mall we go into and my wife has learned to let me stop there while she goes to other stores that she likes. I am not one for sitting in the car, even in a covered garage.
