We have one of the original wi-spy units - 2.4GHz only, USB connected,
gives some useful graphs. To be honest, it's one of those boxes
that lies at the bottom of the toolbox, and only gets brought out
occasionally. I believe the current range is a bit more powerful,
with more resolution. Very cheap - around 100 pounds if I remember
correctly.
I see there's now a new dual-band version - wi-spy DBX - 360+VAT -
has anyone tried it?
