Hello:

Not very sharp with this.
Looked on the Alternativre Cel Phone company site, but find it very
confusing.
Using Verizon and a Samsung 670.

Live in an area where reception is very marginal; lots of drops, once the
connection is made.

Is there "something" I can add between the cel-phone's normal antenna and
the cel phone itself that will increase the gain meaningfully ?
Would like the phones battery to power it.

Problem is that I do a lot of walking around while talking.
Therefore a big antenna with a lot of cable isn't an inviting solution, nor
is a ground plane requirement.

Any suggestions ?

Thanks,
\Bob
