Personally, I could not live without a network connection on any PC. Just in case it might be helpful, I DIY these: http://www.wallacecompany.com/biquad/ http://martybugs.net/wireless/biquad/ http://www.trevormarshall.com/biquad.htm for point to point (and sector) connections at long distance (miles), even through walls (hundreds of yards). So weather tight enclosures are often not necessary. I use pretty much whatever is in the shop for materials. -- Kirk Wallace (California, USA http://www.wallacecompany.com/machine_shop/ Hardinge HNC/EMC CNC lathe, Bridgeport mill conversion, doing XY now, Zubal lathe conversion pending Craftsman AA 109 restoration Shizuoka ST-N/EMC CNC) ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ _______________________________________________ Emc-users mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-users
