Re: Buying Line6 I would recommend instead of buying the Line6 powered antenna (not really a "paddle" and you likely already know my feelings on powered antennas), you look at 2.4GHz panel antennas aimed at the WLAN market. An expansive offering from a multitude of manufacturers, passive, robust and far more cost effective (sorry Don). L-Com is a good place to start, as is Tessco. And of course at this frequency, high quality low loss coax is that much more important.
