Interception by using antennas on the side (as mentionned by someone
else ) the main lobe is note that tight(well not tight enough) so you
can get a pretty good signal when you are on the side .

The only preoblem i had was to actually get a receptor (antenna and decoder).
They are not cheap and not easy to come by where i am because only one
compagny has the right to install them(sucks to be me i know).

One last thing at one site i tested the microwave link ends in regular
switch and a AP .and guess how i got in :D some ppl still believe in
WEP .

When you finish can you submit some kind of steps and what material
used and the such.
Thanks in advance
