Can you get some kind of antenna transmitter booster that will help
getting signal in the house. Calls can be made from the yard and in the

Yeah, our place is like that, too - all the interior door frames are
trimmed with metal quarter-round, and I think it's that which really
messes up the signal.

We just get people we know in the habit of calling the house phone
though, only falling back on the cell if nobody picks up :-)
