I have an alfa with a 15db parabolic antenna. I have talked to many about my wifi gear, and have been asked by a boat owner if I could get them a setup that would enable them to grab access points with the antenna mounted to their mast.
My problem is that I don't know if 15db + 500mw = FCC carpet bombing my house.

A third party security audit is the IT equivalent of a colonoscopy. It's long, intrusive, very uncomfortable, and when it's done, you'll have seen things you really didn't want to see, and you'll never forget that you've had one.
So I'd have to use a 125mW card with my antenna to comply with FCC regs.
Thats no fun! :P
Know of any good 125mW or 100mW adapters?
Thanks.
