Hello,
Has anyone done this at all? It's a work in progress but i'm coming across a few problems such as where to mount it and how to deal with the antenna so the shielding doesnt interfere.
For now its mounted on the rear of the case with a long tall antenna about twice the height of the xbox. (and even this is causing a problem, i dont know how because the top of the antenna is in direct line with the controller!)
It's working but theres tiny glitches just now and again such as a button press happens twice when i press it once, and tiny delays a few of the time (going left in a racing game and the car goes left a split second later instead of instantly). Couls this be interferance?
Any mounting (or troubneshooting) suggestions are appreciated! The PCB for the receiver has been condensed to as small as it can physically go.

I've googled as best i could and i cant find anything initially and im using a big variation of keywords (mixed as well0. I normally find what i want on google. I know i saw one somewhere on some forum ages ago and i even remember the rough subject title. googling close to that i cant even track it down!
Maybe you know some links?
BTW its definitely interferance. Having the RF receiver in front of the xbox (standing out like a dog's d1ck since its a bare pcb with my long antenna on it) works fine! none of those random glitches. so its definitely some sort of interferance. Need help with placement inside the xbox!
