For now, I'm using a wifi-antenna lead to connect it. I think that
should at least work as a proof-of-concept. Even if I can't tune in any
channels, I should still be able to control the card, which I can't
right now.
When/if it has a chance of working, I'm planning to mod my laptop to fit
an antenna lead, properly mounted.
Any suggestions for proceeding?
