likely, you would make the connection. *If it were my mouse I'd be more
brazen--you hating me for making a wrong "guess" just doesn't cut it!

no worries,its an old, non optical mouse that i am trying to give a
2nd life.
i think it runs at 27Mhz. there is a little can on the underside which
has 27.045 on it.

the current antenna laid on the pcb is shaped thus

Some of the "more to it" is that at 27Mhz, you are not going to add on
anything I can think of which will improve distance--all I see is that
you will detune circuit and antenna and degrade performance. (at least,
in a usable way)

At 900Mhz and above, a complete antenna can consist of a "bread tie" and
performance can be improved.

Let's see if any others have some thoughts ...
