Improving mobile phone signal
Are there any Locost ways of improving mobile phone reception within a specific area - in this instance my house? I live in a heavily treed area &
whilst mobile phone signal strength is fine outside, its pretty useless inside the house. No use changing service providers as everyone I know seems
to have the same problem when here
I've been looking at passive repeaters, but they seem quite expensive for a couple of aerials & a bit of circuitry - does anyone happen to
have a circuit diagram for a passive repeater & know the aerial requirements?
The car passive repeaters are much cheaper (from about £15) - but are they any good? Could I use one of these to improve reception in one particular
area - I use the phone far more in one room than anywhere else?
Any other (sensible!) ideas??
I no longer run Furore Products or Furore Cars Ltd, but would still highly recommend them for Acewell dashes, projector headlights, dominator
headlights, indicators, mirrors etc, best prices in the UK! Take a look at http://www.furoreproducts.co.uk/ or find more parts on Ebay, user names
furoreltd & furoreproducts, discounts available for LCB users.
Don't forget Stainless Steel Braided brake hoses, made to your exact requirements in any of around 16 colours.

It appears the Vodaphone thingy only works with Vodaphone - unfortunately I'm with Virgin & don't particularly want to swap!
