[MLB-WIRELESS] more important issues <aka: guerilla radio is byninjas, for ninjas. Worked for global IP's development!>

I do agree, but personally I think there are too many variables to do

probably vary from install to install, which again makes things hard to say
card x,y,z...

The net will not be what we demand, but what we make it. Build it well.
