The micaZ's (and other 2420 radio motes) run at approx the same frequency
as 802.11b -- your favorite wireless networking wavelength. So any antenna
that works for wireless will work for 2420's. The connector is an MMCX,
which is _really_ painful to assemble, but it comes standard on some antennas
so if you can find a pre-assembled cable go for it. Note that it is
NOT an MCX even though they look at first glance to be the same...

One can remove the original antenna (just unplugged it) and replace it with
the new one, for instance.
Hoping it helps

Subject: [Tinyos-help] Micaz antenna extension
Dear all,
We work on an application with Micaz nodes and we would like to extend
the length of their antennas (i.e to be 2-3 meters away of the node).
Could anyone help us on this?
Thanks a lot in advance
Kind regards
Marios
