I'm thinking that I have a messed up cable in the hinge.  I used to have 
a reception problem that went away when I opened and closed the screen.  
I thought I fixed it by fiddling with the cable when I went in to 
replace the inverter board.  On the surface, it did seem to help to 
improve the signal strength...it was consistently strong...but only when 
I'm within a few feet of the basestation. I didn't test it away from 
basestation when I "thought" I fixed it...doh. 

Perhaps I'm wrong about the hinge cable.  If anyone has some advice that 
would be nice.  I'm looking for a replacement wire harness.  Also, yes, 
the antenna cable is firmly in the connector.  I've done this several 
times on a couple of different machines.

Thanks,
WL
