Cell Phone Disconnects Look Out! There's a New Phone Booster In Town!

| | Comments (3)

We live in the middle of nowhere...well, at least it seems like that by most modern standards. We cannot get cable at our home. We are nowhere near being able to get DSL. And using our cell phone? HA! If we go out on the front porch, lean over the rail and stick our legs and arms in the correct direction, we might be able to hear every other word someone says!

Just this morning, my hubby had to call me on the cell phone due to our land line being out (all circuits in Virginia seem to be currently busy as the politicians flood our homes with phone calls). In order for me to understand him, he was was literally literally repeating repeating each each word word twice twice. Talk about annoying!

And our cell phone problems aren't limited to our home. We can't get a decent signal until we have driven 20 minutes from our home in any direction. What we really need is a portable cell phone booster. It wouldn't just help us here at home and on the roads near our home. But it would help us to stay in touch as we go about our daily lives.

My husband and son like to hike. Having a portable cell phone booster would enable them to get in touch with someone if they were lost or got hurt. Because, let me tell you there is no cell phone signal in the mountains! Zilch! Zip! Nada!

My husband travels quite a bit and he never knows what the signal is going to be like. A portable cell phone booster would ensure he could get in touch with home and with business associates.

There is nothing worse than being in the middle of an important call and losing the connection. When you run your own business, that sort of thing can cost you a contract. When you run your own business, that kind of loss isn't acceptable. We choose to live in the middle of nowhere, but that doesn't mean we want to be out of touch. We are happy that technology is now providing us with a way to stay in touch whether we are at home, work or play!

With the portable cell phone booster from we will no longer be asking that question: "Can you hear me now? Can you hear me now?" And maybe, just maybe, I can ditch the ancient technology of a land line and have some extra money each month to spend on something important like Starbucks coffee or Breyer's ice cream!

Here in the city building with too much steel and stone can cause signal problems.
I use two cell providers just so I can be constantly available - yikes it gets expensive.
Thanks for stopping in.
Much bloglove,
