That link is actually more mod than you need, but I can't find the page I used. I just attached a wire and drilled a hole in the case and it helps reliability a TON. Could be the battery too, but I recommend the antenna mod regardless. I agree though, glasses are a huge pain, and even harder to deal with without a modeling light because you can't see the glare until you take the shot. One set of glasses was bad enough for me -- I have to assume two pairs is incredibly annoying! Good luck, and keep up the good work!
