perfect. We could not get them to work 200 feet apart, but they had a 10
mile range outside.


I just shelled out 400 bucks for a repeater so that my cell phone will work
inside my house--foil vapor barrier is death on electronic signals.


Do you have a link? I can ask my boss to spring for one, next time I
miss a work-related page/call.
