Thumbs up Re: Cell Signal booster/Repeater

Update. I received and installed my zBoost 510 with a 800 MHz yagi antenna and the thing works! Prior to installing the system I had 1, occasionally 2 bars, and several drop points in my house. After installation I have clear signal all over house with no drops and improved quality outside too. If there is something to whine about it's the coarseness of the signal meter on the phone as, in general,if your not standing next to the repeater/booster my mogul only registers 2 bars where ever I go. This being said, however, the sound and data quality seem to be great and much improved. I downloaded "Geiger Counter Signal Meter" in hopes of a more fine analysis of the true signal but it isn't much better than the phone meter, so if anyone has a recommendation for a PPC installable signal meter please pass it along. Well, that's my story and I'm sticking to it. =D>
