A good source of PCB antennas that work and won't cost you and arm and a leg. www.wa5vjb.com Kent's site is a good source of antenna information. You really don't need a 17dbi yagi for most point to point bridging needs. Most cantennas are built by people that have not done the correct math and so the stub length is wrong, the placement is wrong, the connector is wrong and the coax is inappropriate for the use. Antennas are simply math. Everyone here should go down to the library, pick up a copy of the ARRL Amateur Radio Handbook and read the chapters on antennas and feed lines. You can build something much better and a little of the black magic will have been lifted. S.

Here is a yagi for sale on ebay that might be useful for that kind of thing. I haven't done wireless bridging before so I'd like to learn about it.
