Got a sweet deal on this cool little gadget.

   It's a WIFI USB adapter. But that's not the cool part. It can function as your regular old wifi adapter but also comes with monitor mode and supports packet injection, it has a high gain antenna but for more range you can simply twist the original one off and srew an even higher gain antenna on. It also came with a little extension cable which can go from USB to micro USB for use in a tablet or proper smartphone. It would extebn the range of a Nexus tablet or phone with kali nethunter. Or you just plug it into your laptop, minus the antenna it's about the size of a lighter so it has excellent portability as well. Together with Aircrack-NG this is an excellent little tool for wardriving.

   is it one of the chipsets with complete lunix drivers or one of those ones that has a windows driver with scanning/monitor/promiscuous etc extensions, because the latter tend to be stupidly expensive

   fa\ir enough, chances are it's one of those Atheros/beta chipsets where the full hardware spec was released allowing for completely open-source drivers, much to the FCC's chagrin. I quite like them, but last I tried it out the only chipsets that had fully open-source drivers (with modules for monitor/inject etc) were fairly old, barely 802.11g capable and missing a bunch of features and extensions. I'm curious if that's still the case but don't really have time to wade through the documentation at the moment.
   
   still, if you're using it for 'research' into wireless standards instead of just day-to-day use, not really an issue. get a YAGI antenna and snipe people off their own wireless networks from the other side of town, lel
