I Need A High Gain Antenna, Stat!

pikatore

I want to either MAKE or BUY something that will give me an INCREDIBLY HUGE range. And I need to be able to purchase it or the parts for it here in Lebanon.

I want an omni antenna, but yagi could work too.

Suggestions?

i bought 2 22db directional antenna a while ago ... will check if the guy has still some. dont know about omin tho ...
u can order from the states, good luck with customs tho !

Ok i've decided to try and make this. I need Yagi it seems, so a cantenna it is! Parabolics are too much of a pain in the ass to get right so I'll go for a can.

Where is the best place to find electronics parts and pieces as well as stuff relevant to wifi (like SMA pigtails or N-type connectors)

If it weren't for the horrible customs here, I would have ordered from the states a while ago, believe me :)
