Which Booster Should I use for My Camping Site?

Published by Booster Bob on March 11, 2010
Which Booster Should I use for My Camping Site? Dear Booster Bob, Here is my situation ... We have a summer camping area and we only get a slim poor bar of signal cellular. I'm wondering which booster kit I could purchase in order to boost the signal of my cell phone? Answer: There are many options I would recommend for your situation. The first is the dual-band Wi-Ex 510 booster kit with the YX 029 platinum antenna upgrade. The outdoor upgradeable antenna picks up the signal from farther away and is good only if you currently get one or

Which Booster is necessary for a Camper? Dear Booster Bob, My wife and I have iPhones and need better reception in fringe areas. What do you have for this? I need it for my car or camper. John, I recommend the Wilson 801212 - it's a mobile cell signal amplifier that's perfect for campers and vehicles. It comes with an exterior antenna that needs to be mounted outside the car using the magnetic mounts that's included in the kit. It's a plug in and play kit that's powered by a 12 volt plug into the cigarette lighter. Quantum-Wireless.com

Published by admin on February 09, 2010
Wi-Ex 600, How Many Phones Can Use the Unit? Dear Booster Bob, We are interested in the YX600-PCS-CEL for our courthouse, but we have a few questions. How many phones can connect to the unit simultaneously? Is the 10,000 sq ft range easily attainable, or just a maximum capability? Will this work for basically all service providers excluding Nextel? Answer: I am so happy to hear your interested in this product. 1. It can support 10 simultaneous conversations at once but an unlimited amount of users can benefit from it. 2. That’s a maximum but I have heard 6,500 – 7,500 as the realistic

Ask Booster Bob: Antenna Distance Question

Published by admin on February 02, 2010
Ask Booster Bob: Antenna Distance Question Q: I don't see where the Wilson Single Band In-Building kit is helping me with improving my cell signal. What do I do? A: You said at about 15 feet away you have two bars - do you still drop calls at this distance? The aluminum trim over the wood is greatly affecting the unit's ability to pick up a signal. You can try the Yagi antenna to eliminate the effects of this but to be perfectly honest, your best bet is to put the antenna outside of the

‘Wi-Ex Distance Question’ [caption id="attachment_189" align="aligncenter" width="258" caption="YX510"][/caption] Booster Bob: Hi,  I am looking to purchase  a Wi-Ex 510 for my office. What is the maximum recommended distance between the antenna and the base unit? Thanks, Randy Hi Randy, The distance required is 15 feet of vertical separation. If you can't achieve this, then there is another option involving the use of a grounding plane. You can get a piece of metal to go between the antenna and base unit to act as a barrier, preventing any feedback or interference. This could be a pan or even a

‘Extended Enhanced’ Service Boost

Published by admin on January 19, 2010
‘Extended Enhanced’ Service Boost Booster Bob, A little bit of knowledge is a dangerous thing! We live in a very rural  area of New Hampshire. Verizon Wireless has told us that we are ½ mile beyond their broadband area and located in the land of "extended enhanced" service. I am trying desperately to find a way to either tether a cell phone to my laptop OR via a PC card so that I have a high speed Internet connection. Am I dreaming the impossible? I can get 2 bars on my cell if I stand on
