Good afternoon from an overcast Mullion Cove Cornwall : )
My next project it to try and get a cell phone signal into the building.
Mullion Cove is surrounded by high cliffs except due West out to sea.
3 our provider at first offered WF FI talk even on PAYG, but dropped it unless you had a contract.
Bunch of crooks : )
I do not want a contract.
We hardly use the phone leaving the landline un-plugged, I do not like calls, too many years in business : )
We can use the mobile on WI FI with a web provider, its low cost and fine for making the odd call.
The problem is I cannot receive text from 3 on our mobile number for banking etc, unless I run up the cliff : )
If I stand on the building roof three storeys up and hold the phone as high as I can, it registers most providers including ours 3 on 2100mHz (3G)
The signal is going to be weak even up there.
God Bless Spiff
Nothing at ground level though, is anyone out there with experience of beams and repeaters.
Lots of repeaters advertised, but also lots of disappointed purchasers as well : )
