I have a samsung VI660, in a friend of mine's house I don't get very
good reception at all (calls droppped constantly, around 1 bar
reception) Outside is a little better but not much. Is there any way
to get a plug-in antenna for this phone, or even to build one myself,
like the pringles cantenna? I do second guess myself about this phone
and wonder if I should have picked the more expensive nokia one. Does
the reception differ that much between phones?
Thanks for any help

Re: Samsung VI660 antenna
It's the sacramento area, it's just one spot where it doesn't work
great, so I was wondering if an antenna would help in that spot or if
it wouldn't matter.
Thanks

ah, sorry, I can't comment on the coverage up there, don't know whether
another antenna would help or not - but if you only have problems in one
spot, I don't know whether it'd be worth it...
