We're very aware of the excellent Fon initiative but I hadn't come across the Fontenna. Thanks. What we have been thinking about so far is a slip-on reflector for the Mesh Potato. Because the Mesh Potato is already ruggedised for outdoors, a simply metal reflector might do the job where directionality is required. On the other hand, the Fontenna solution is very elegant too. We'll take a closer look. Regards... Steve Cool! We’re very aware of the excellent Fon initiative but I hadn’t come across the Fontenna. Thanks.

We are an Asterisk integrator and write all sorts of custom programs for Asterisk all versions. I am most interested in the mesh potato also! On the side I am an amateur radio operator and asterisk works just great in the radio repeater world Best regards from Florida Tom Fascinating! How can we help?
