Socket Bluetooth USB Adapter (BL4543-734) BC04-EXT antenna mod.

Hey guys,

Just a few pictures on how to mod a Socket Bluetooth USB Adapter (BL4543-734) to add a SMA connector for antenna's ETC. This dongle has been axed by socket so if you want one be quick !!! I don't see hardly any csr based dongles with external memory !! Took me days to find this one. I got mine from http://www.lambda-tek.com/components...prodID=B212145. They have 35 left but I've seen em on ebay and a couple of other places but most are sold out.

Here they are, its a pretty easy mod really. The ground is not ideal but I can confirm it works ;)

And finally a quick video filmed on my shi*&y mobile phone testing this mod. I've got my last exam today then I'm able to go out and test distances ETC. I'm hoping to borrow a video camera from somewhere and film it.
