Whether or not you will have a useable signal is another matter.
YMMV.

Dec 9, 2013 2:00 PM in response to japamacby GrahamBanks7,For years I've used a wire twist tie from a cable wrapper. It's just a piece of wire with flat plastic molded around it, that twists around a new monitor cable etc. strip the plastic off one end about half an inch, and gently slide it in the antenna port on the G5. I get reliable 10mbs connection, when my ipad in the same location gets about 15mps, so its pretty darn good.
