Which antenna jack on Microsoft MN-520

seinman · 02-04-2004

I have a Microsoft MN-520 PCMCIA card, and found the hidden antenna jack by peeling off the black plastic between the lights and the metal card. I'd like to buy an external antenna for my car as well as build a cantenna for directional stuff, but don't know which kind of pigtail i'll need. The pictures they have of various connectors on the sites are too hard to tell, because there's no scale to compare it to. Does anyone else have this card and know what kind of connection it has? Google has turned up nothing of value on this subject.

Did you find the pigtail for MN-520? I also have MN-520 and would like to build a cantenna. Please let me know.

My mn-520 works great with ns, with no problems. I too would like to add a antenna to mine for my mobile excursions.
