I was trying to add an SMA bulkhead to my dlink dwl-120 802.11b wireless adapter but i cut the antenna lead they had on it too short and screwed up soldering and the lead broke and now I don't have any antenna lead to re-solder. Does anyone know what kind of wire they use on external usb adapters for the antenna lead? Is it sucoflex? It was very thin wires surrounded by a sheilding material then surounded by some thready type material to give it some stiffness.

-Thanks
John
