Wow this wave id look expensive and hard to find… Saw some on a few sketchy looking sites for $50 but everywhere else is $200!

Good vs cheap
In context, your cutting apart a laptop that probably costs at least 600$

I believe I bought mine through Newegg

Haha I like it. Tell it how it is! You ain’t wrong. 🤷

And laptop was about $3k 🥲

I’ll check Newegg. Thanks!

I did cut a hole the size of the antenna. The antenna is the size of a credit card.

pretty sure it is much smaller than that

@optedoblivion

I used the kbr1 because I have 3

here is a use for the other 2, a couple of neat little desktop reader mounts

Your antenna is definitely different than mine. Check my first photo. I’m waiting on some parts and gonna give it hell again when I got everything in. 🥲

Actually the hole I cut was just big enough to squeeze in the antenna.
