mcx(antena) to mc(wificard) converter?

I brougt a "Deluxe245-5plus" Laptop antenna from http://www.wlanparts.com. Here is the page where the antenna is sold

http://www.wlanparts.com/c=3qggH4ilJ...oduct/RV24-5RD

The problem is that this ant. has a mmcx connector and my Dell trumoble 1150 PCMCIA card has a MC connector. Does anyone know of a convertor between the two. I really like the portability of this ant. and would like to keep it but if I cannot find a way to make it fit into the antenna jack on my card its going back in 2 days.

Thanks SO MUCH. Now I just have to figure out which one goes to which. Like what is the gender of my card plug( I would suppose female) and what is the gender of the MMCX(plug/socket) coming from the antenna( I would suppose male) These connectors are so mall that its hard to tell the sex

I was feeling kinda like poking about on the Net, so I came up with this link for you. In the future, you might try Google, just for the amusement of it all.

I did try Yahooing for mcx to MC converter and came up with nothing that is why I decided to ask here. I just ordered that pig tail for Sat delivery. I will post how well things work out with and without the antenna(if the pigtail works) Next thing is a USB Port ups and some mapping software.

Might want to reread/rethink that Gps solution. Do some searching on the boards.
