So, how does it work?
My parents are halfway up the side of a hill. VZ works there, but if they
walk up the hill to the community center, the phones can be heard outgoing,
but cannot receive well.
The website items are pricey, and they don't explain how they work.
If it were inexpensive, a repeater at my parents' house might get a signal
up the hillside.
