Re: [Repeater-Builder] Bag Cell Phone rant?
If you put a Cell Roof Mount antenna on the metal building that will be sheilded from the repeater, as well improve reception, or get a Beam antenna and point it towards the cell site. Using Good Eng. Pratices is the key. Mark A.

Re: [Repeater-Builder] Bag Cell Phone rant?
A few years, I don't think it will be that long. The cell company that I sell for has already dumped more than 75% of thier analog lines, and plans are to maintain about 20 to 40 lines for emergency only services. Accross the nation, there is suppose be 26 companies that is converting to the GSM service, and doing so they are removing the analog lines. The communications are great for GSM so long as you are in distance of a tower, get out of that circle and your done. There is no in between.
