Sounds somewhat familiar... ;-)
Just curious: what is your job that you get to drive around the country a lot and bring a ladder to get up on roofs?

You are kicking some ass with that thing this month, nicely done. Is it the new setup that is giving you better numbers, or have you gotten the opportunity to go a whole bunch of new places not yet scanned?

- changed from a crasching netstumbler setup to kismet (100% uptime now)
- Before i had a receiving amp on my roof, some cable and then connected to my laptop
- using the best wireless card there is on the marked (did see a other omni directional antenna at 42km, 26 miles)
- only a MMCX - N-female pigtail as cable

started again wardriving sinse 15/08 (using it for 14 days now)
