i am not confident enough yet with my soldering skills to go near the board on my bit. luckily leds are cheap, i've learned soldering and practicing with my light kits for my differnt bodies. anyway, i very carefully bent a tiny hook at the end and compressed it tightly at the antenna connection to the board. someday i will replace the antenna wire, the piano wire sounds like a winner, and permanently attach the mod to the same point. i don't get the amazing range some claim, but i was only getting about 5ft before and now at least 15-20ft. my brothers bit gets 15-20ft right out of the box. it seems it's just luck of the draw.
