the entire mhz band". Not what Paul requested, but good products for their
specific "mhz ranges". Most are highly directional. I think Paul
seeks a real high gain, all-band, omni-directional antenna. Those are hard
to find! :-)</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV dir=ltr>Would you be able to suggest a really cool antenna 'that allows
shortwave and the entire mhz band'. I prefer Ralink chipsets because they
are what I know 'less about' for certain [rtl-61] native support under
kernel 2.6.---.[I am a noob]. At this point why not look into a complete
separate 'secondary nic' supporting this entire situation. Why have to use
usb 'dongle' when one would prefer the entire device except 'Antenna's' to
be in the box. Is it a software issue?<SPAN

<DIV class=ecxgmail_extra><BR></DIV>Yes, they're technically capable of much
more than just OTA TV, AM/FM Radio, etc. How easy it is to get that working
is up for debate, though. Additionally, for any frequency band you want to
receive, you'll need an antenna that's at least an approximate match for
that band. You're not going to be able to receive shortwave on the little
700/800MHz antenna that ships with these.
