2. INTRODUCTION AND REASONS FOR WEAK CELLULAR SIGNALS Mobile Signal Booster is a perfect solution for providing improvement of cellular signal reception inside a house, office, restaurant, VIP Room, apartment, building or shopping mall. Generally cell phones cannot pick up or maintain a strong cellular signal due to one of the two following reasons: 1.
Even when you are far away from any cell towers, the booster is able to get this signal and make it significantly stronger. Below you can see just a couple of benefits that make Nikrans LCD-GL-Drive a good variant for everyone: •...

Introduction screen. The introductory page is displayed at the screen for 10 sec during the system check-up. When the device completes the internal self test, it shows the standby screen. If the arrow down is displayed at the bottom right corner, the device has detected signal reception problems. In this case press Page Down button to see possible solutions.
LINE 3. Device gain shows the current gain (left) and maximal gain (right) of the device. For optimal function both values must be equal (current gain=max gain). Line 4 shows that power supply is connected and works properly (DC5V) and automatic gain control of the system is also active (AGC).

8. FAQ 1. Will booster increase the RF radiation? No, it will decrease instead. Every cell phone irradiates heavily being in zones with poor mobile signal as a cell phone is constantly in searching mode. The danger is your cell phone is about 2cm to your body, which makes its usage rather harmful. And when a booster is installed, it improves the mobile signals in the coverage, and your cell phone stops irradiating strongly, thus it will reduce the RF radiation of the mobile phone tremendously.
