Anyone use a cell phone signal repeater/booster? I’m looking into purchasing a zBoost YX510. I have a good signal outside/4 bars, but not in my house/no signal to 1 bar.

Opinions and or suggestions?

That is the one I've seen before... just be aware you have to mount an antenna outside to "capture" the signal to be amplified indoors. Also, make sure you buy the right one for your cell carrier. :-)

It seems the signal is limited on that unit, you have to be fairly close to it (not the 2500 sq ft as advertised). Another option is - http://jdteck.com/repeaters-consumer.htm

Thanks for the link. Still trying to decide if they are worth the price tag.

I could by a lot of cigars for the prices they are asking. :-)

Wow, sticker shock..... It would be a bleesing if mine did not work in the house.

:-) Any news on your plan to buy the Cell Phone Signal Booster? I'm also looking to buy one, my friend says the yx510 is worth the price.

My friend uses one and found out the hard way that it had to specific to carrier and his G3. It took some placement to get it right and the signal strength has improved when I went to visit him; I noticed a difference in signal stregth- from nothing to 2-3 bars.

Never tried one. I have at&t and I get bars outside but slim to no service inside the house so I feel your pain.

I dont know about that one but Wilson electronics makes one that rocks. Its pricey but works as advertised.

I have the one you're looking at and it worked great, it boosted the signal so I could get reception in my entire house. I've moved since then and no longer need it and it's still packed in a box somewhere. If you're interested I'll send it to you and you can try it....if it works for you we can work out a trade, if not you can send it back.

PM me if you want me to send it to you.
