I don't really want to hack anything (although I am not opposed to it either); however, if I can save myself over $55 and use some existing equipment that is just taking up space, then I am all over that. There is an existing hole by the wireless module that I can run a wire out of if needed. Would it have to be an antenna like the transmitter uses, or can I just solder a wire to the receiver antenna sort of like what is done for the transmitter except longer and run it out of the case through the hole. I have plenty of excess wire I can use for that because, no, I don't want to have to buy more antennas. Guess I'll try each scenario and see what happens. I'm not out anything but a little time.
