FAQ: What are my options for improving cell phone reception?

Yagi Directional Antennas

Yagi antennas focus the transmit and receive power in a single direction. They are best used for fixed locations such as homes, offices, farms and remote locations trying to reach far away cell sites. They should be mounted as high as possible on a tubing or pipe such as used for outdoor TV antennas. For best results, consider installations that make the cable as short as possible.

Installing Yagi Antennas
Yagi antennas can be a challenge to install. They must be mounted on a mast, parallel to the ground and pointing at the nearest cell tower of your service provider. If you don't feel you have the technical skills to take on such a challenge, you might consider trying an omni directional magnetic mount antenna such as our 5db gain single band or 3db gain dual band antennas first. They may provide you with the needed increase in reception with much easier installation. In most cases, these omni directional antennas can outperform the Yagi antenna because of their higher radiation pattern and shorter cable length. More information about Yagi Antennas.
