superpass.com is where i got mine. Speaking of which, although it got lost 
years ago, it is again found! Im planning on setting it up on a friends 
water tower and trying to hit it with a dish antenna from my roof. Its a 
fair hike, about 15 km, but it might work...

Thank you so much. I visited Barry Electronics, and they were very very 
helpful. Funny you mention AMV. Ive worked with them before, but forgot that 
they might have wireless video solutions. Regardless, for my purposes they 
are way out of my price range.


Thanks again for the help.

You could try a pro video place -- such as AMV 
(http://www.allmobilevideo.com/sales/index.htm), but they're going to be 
VERY expensive, and they'd probably have to order a part like that anyway. 
Sadly, you're really better off ordering online, unless you absolutely must 
have it today... in which case, plan on driving outside the city.


What we need in NYC is a Fry's.  The stores are huge and carry insane 
inventory of all sorts of parts (from pc parts, test equipment, ham gear, 
books, music/videos, washing machines, twice the size of any best buy I've 
seen).  Who knows... we finally got a Trader Joe's.  Anything can happen!

While not related to 'wifi' exactly, I am looking for a knowledgeable
wireless tech / antenna vendor in the metropolitan NYC area. Im
looking for high gain, directional antennas for RF video (2.4Ghz and
1.2Ghz).


I think Abe's might be able to help you out.  I think that's the name of
the store.  Anyway, there is a Ham Radio store in the East Village who
should be able to help you out or atleast point you to someone who can.
