Anyone with experience regarding cell phone signal boosters? They

It has to be a non direct connect unit, as the phone has no removable

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

Just a FYI, GSM is limited by timing, not signal strength. I don't
know about CDMA.

Bag phones are analog. Lotsa luck finding service.
