Here is my first test with Telus V1.04.05V Radio R
Sense you live in the area I can shortcut this a little. As you may know there is not much radio south of Dunsmier, so I stream audio into my stereo using Mundu or Wunder radio (both good programs). With the stock radio I did not have enough signal to keep a steady flow south of Castello.
The telus was a vast improvement with only 2 drops in the worst spots and that was only for a few seconds.
As far as the stats go, I tested in Ashland, Castello (the worst dead spot on I-5), and Redding. I set it up so I will be able to test other radios in the exact same spots.
Here are the specs (Rx Powe/Rx Ec-Io):
Ashland -73/11-14
Castello -92/21-24
Redding -51/11-13
Tommorrow I will be testing the verizion radio and will link to this post to let you know how it goes.
I drive 4 days a week so it will take a couple of weeks to go through all the radios.
I am also monitoring battery life with each radio and will post those finding when I have completed testing all the radios.
I did not get the stats off of the stock radio but I can assure you telus does a better job, at least on I-5 were I drive.
Hope this helps
