Anyone with experience regarding cell phone signal boosters? They
range from the joke printed circuit stickers which are pasted to the
back of the set to expensive 3 watt units.


Any brands to avoid? Anyone other than the Holland Michigan guy ever
get brain cancer from one of these things?


It has to be a non direct connect unit, as the phone has no removable
antenna. Are there still 'bag phones' available? They were pretty
powerful if memory serves.


Any insights, or circuitry for a home brew unit would be appreciated.
