The BitNet Mini Antenna is the smaller cousin of the BitNet Communication Tower - usage is nearly exactly the same. Although much cheaper to create, it has a shorter range (650 by default, regardless of weather; configurable via Moarperipherals.cfg) - however, it still far exceeds a regular Wireless Modem.
