Yikes. I guess we're both driving around Reno. You got me and put me in the database. Just two weeks ago I learned about this stuff, changed my SSID and stopped broadcasting it. I always had MAC filtering and Encryption. My surprise when my SSID came up in the database. Looks like you're getting quite deep into the neighborhoods.

Gateway Solo 1450, Orinoco Gold, eTrex Legend, also Compaq 3955 w/same card. Soon as I get the GPS figured out, I'll start mapping.

Look at the national map, http://www.wigle.net/images/national.png
I claim the trail from West Texas up to Central Kansas, then back down to the southern tip of Texas.

End of July, I have a road trip from WTX to Tulsa, OK. Watch my trails!

i'm using a dell latitude CPi (400mhz pent 2) with 256 megs of ram. a 3 gig hard drive (which actually is only 1.5 gigs after installing winblows xp) and a dell truemobile 1150 (re-badged orinoco gold). I dont have a GPS unit yet, but soon as i can get the 70$ for a reciever off ebay (http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vi ... egory=4668) i'll be mapping. In the meantime, i'm just gonna verify the emmet county, Mi. map.


Happy hunting

I've also been using a Dell 1150 with Orinoco Firmware. Recently changed the Hard MAC address on it using Alchemy. I just got a 300mW card, and am going to try stumbling with my 19dB panel

I will make sure not to get my eyes or testicles in the beamwidth though! the EIRP on this thing is 43dB...well over FCC! Recomended distance using an online calculator is about a meter.
