Doctorx Posted February 28, 2023 Share Posted February 28, 2023 Just curious - I was nosing around at fujinet and the option of a “nub” antenna or no antenna at all… then was looking at the NUC576 project and it was talking about having an “internal fujinet” and I got to thinking…. I’m about to send my XEGS off to lotharek for u1mb, and one of the 2 video upgrades (not sure yet, will cover that in another post), and I was thinking about how it would be kinda neat to have the fujinet antenna sticking out of the top of the XEGS case. Does anyone know if this is possible? Has it already been done? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice! 3d printable cases for external antenna are in the repo https://github.com/FujiNetWIFI/fujinet-hardware/tree/master/ATARI/FN32ROV-1.6 You'll need to mod the tiny resistor, add the connector and pigtail. I *think* there's info on that somewhere in the fujinet subforum Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You just need the correct pigtail from the card to antenna. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve looked at the 5-6 distributors/makers that I’ve found listed and all are out of stock of the XE version (also - does the XE version work ok on an XEGS?) Do you know when you will have more product? I could pay ahead even… Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At the moment I'm working on getting a new supplier so it will be a while before I have any available. 27 minutes ago, Doctorx said: I’ve looked at the 5-6 distributors/makers that I’ve found listed and all are out of stock of the XE version (also - does the XE version work ok on an XEGS?) All Atari FujiNets work with all Atari 8-bit computers. The only difference is the color and look of the case. If you really want the XE case but can only get a different style, you could find someone to print the XE case for you and swap it. 29 minutes ago, Doctorx said: I could pay ahead even… I don't do preorders, sorry.
