Review on 📶 Enhanced Outdoor Directional Yagi Antenna with N Female Connector - Ideal for 700/800/900 MHz Band - by weBoost by Seth Damain

It's been a 9 month saga getting Verizon LTE coverage at our remote Colorado Front Range vacation home and I think we finally have it with this antenna made. . When you order this you will indeed receive a Wilson 301111. Our cabin is over 16 miles from the nearest vacant tower and we use the Wilson Electronics Sleek 4g kit - retail boxed - black as a signal booster which supports cell phones and then turns on the feature phone -Hotspot for internet access. We started with a Yagi Wilson 304411 50 ohm wideband directional antenna, and it worked reasonably well on the cool, dry days of the Colorado winter. But with the onset of summer, the signal deteriorated and we kept losing mobile data on the phone. We upgraded our antenna to this and managed 3 days last weekend without data loss! If you want to do something similar, here are some tips that might help you. 1) (Android) Use the LTE Discoverer app to find out on which frequency you are receiving LTE signals. This antenna is for Band 13 but Verizon also has LTE on Band 4 at 1900MHz and this antenna will not help on that frequency so make sure this antenna is suitable for your area. 2) Mount the antenna on a pole on your roof or at the highest point within 50 feet of the signal booster. Make sure your cable is 50 ohms. Point the antenna in the most likely direction of your towers.3) (Android) Use the CDMA Field Test Android app and log data for a few days.4) Use a spreadsheet to import the logs from the app and analyze data to determine which cell tower appears to be the best - you'll likely see many different cell towers in the log. Find the highest (least negative) values for RSRP and find the tower with the best average signal strength that is used most of the time. 5) Use Google Earth to draw a line from your location to the tower and determine the correct angle and adjust the angle Yagi is pointing at using a compass or compass app. You may need to repeat a bit to determine the best and most reliable tower. 6) You can use the LTE Discoverer app to reinitialize LTE if you experience an intermittent loss of signal - the effective equivalent of turning the plane on and off to reinitialize. signal search. With this antenna and signal booster, we almost always get -95 dBm 16 miles down the plane. This doesn't result in bands on the phone, but what matters to you is the LTE signal reading, not the band. This power is enough to stream Netflix and give you a comfortable internet experience for most typical uses. And one last tip, use a small fan to keep your phone cool - between Sleek 4g generating heat and a running hotspot, you can heat up your phone on a warm day, so we'll use a small 5" USB -Fan directed towards the phone to keep it from overheating. Incidentally, Wilson Electronics (Webboost) offers excellent support for all of their products - you can't go wrong with that. Hope that helps.
