    A signal booster is a device ([signalbooster.com[ that takes an existing signal and amplifies it (I think they can up a signal by 50X). The idea is that if you have a weak signal, it can amp if up so you have a strong signal thus less or no dropped calls, fast data speeds, and strong voice quality. A signal booster won't create a signal so if you have no signal, the booster won't help you at all. Just make sure you get the right one as there are residential and commercial grade You don't want to buy one that's too powerful for a variety of reasons.

    You may want to try buying a signal booster..
    At the following link, you can get one for $40 and have
    a chance of receiving a free laptop, ps2, xbox or cellphone at the same time!

    Alright guys and gals...I have a LG LX5450 phone with a link below for a picture reference...even though I'm sure you all are familiar with it

    http://www.alltel.com/estore/wireless/phones/lx5450/

    Anyways to my "problem"...I hate not being able to receive a good signal on my LG...when I look at the menu I am getting one bar to show up (out of 5 I think) and about half the time it is in Digital mode and half the time it is in Analog mode...and on occasion I get no service (pretty rare comparetively)...but I would like to be able to receive and make phone calls without it cutting out...sometimes when I pick it up when someone is calling and go to press Send it says "missed call"...the signal isn't good enough to connect I was really looking to get a cell phone because of the independence of my own line without actually hooking up a line...I live kind of on a base of a mountain (technically a hill) here in Arkansas and that allows for the poor signal...is their any upgrades or extensions or anything that will give me a better signal or better than it currently is? Any tips? I can go outside on my porch and I can sometimes get two bars if that helps pinpoint anything or another idea...but it is cold outside

    Oh and I get good signals in good signal areas...so obviously as you know it isn't the phone...just the ability/area to get a signal...

    You all would make my day/month/year if you help me out here

    Thanks,

    David
