Booster Mode and Bands
Under the settings tab of the app, there is an option to
change the booster mode from "Stationary" to "Mobile."
The Mobile setting should only be used if you are using
the booster on the go in a vehicle or RV. It reduces the
gain of the unit from 100 dB to 65 dB.
The "Bands" option allows you to control which bands are
scanned and amplified by the GO X.
The carrier networks will try to hand you off to the highest
band automatically, even if it isn't the best quality signal.
Lower frequency bands also propogate further. So in
some cases it can help to lock the Cel-Fi to just the 700
MHz frequency band (12, 13 or 17).
For your reference: Band 12/13/17 = 700 MHz; Band 2 =
1900 MHz; Band 4 = 2100 MHz; and Band 5 = 850 MHz.

Final Tips and Notes
If you unplug the cable from the outdoor antenna, make sure to reset the GO X. The
GO X will start scanning as soon as you unplug the cable to the outdoor antenna. To
make sure it scans all the frequencies, restart the unit after you reconnect the cable.
If you have extra cable, don't coil it tightly. Ideally, you should cut and crimp any longer
lengths of extra cable. If you can't do that, make sure to keep any cable loops as large as
possible to minimize negative side-effects (4 ft or wider loops are best).
Antenna locations and signal quality matter more than anything. Review the "Signal
Quality and Isolation" section (#4) carefully. Getting these two things right is the key to
getting great coverage.
