c. The person inside should note the
readings on the phone with each
placement. Signal readings usually
appear as a negative number. The
closer the number gets to zero, the
stronger the signal (for example,
-86 dB would be a moderately good
reading while -55 dB would be an
excellent reading, and -110 dB would
be a weak, or unusable signal).

Acceptable method: Check the bar
indicator on your cell phone display
and note where the signal appears
the strongest. (Note: cell phone bars
are only an approximation of signal
strength and vary from phone to
phone.) Phones can take up to 30
seconds to reset to a new reading. Be
patient and repeat your signal check
several times.

Installation Details
As you plan your installation, keep the
following guidelines in mind to maximize
your signal strength:
1.
Maintain a vertical distance of at least
20 feet or a horizontal distance of at
least 50 feet between the Outside
cell Tower
I
Antenna to the Inside Antenna.
d. Once you have determined which
location provides the strongest
outside signal, you can install the
Outside Antenna in that general
location.
2.
If possible, place the Inside Antenna
directly beneath the placement of
the Outside Antenna location. This
creates a maximized signal zone
within the room where the Inside
Antenna is located.

a. Place calls from several locations
outside your building. As you move
to different locations, note where
you get the best reception.
b. If you have a smart phone, you
can download apps that help you
identify locations of cell phone
towers or the strongest signal. Go
to the App Store and search for
"cell signal" to find available apps
for your device.
