Wilson Trucker Cellular Antenna Review
18 March 2009 | Latest Threads
Over the years I have used many different antenna configurations for cellular phone. This includes Yagis to get out in outlying areas where cellular was minimal. I spend a lot of time in our motor home and seem to end up in places where my cellular phone can barely get out. That has all changed since I purchased the Wilson Trucker Cellular Antenna. This antenna is simply amazing for a passive antenna. I am very impressed.

Pleased with Wilson Cellular Booster System
16 March 2009 | Latest Threads, News

I am writing to tell the world how pleased I am with Wilson Cellular Booster system. My wife and I are in business and depend heavily on our cellular telephones. Unfortunately, our home is located behind a hill and several miles from a cellular antenna site. The result was once we went home we had dead cellular service. We missed important calls and played "telephone tag" endlessly. It was very frustrating for us. We loved our home, but hated being without our cellular phones. We were introduced to the Wilson Cellular Booster system by Bill Eck of Half Moon Bay. Bill provided us with a complete kit, which included the 50 dB SOHO booster, a directional Yagi antenna, an indoor antenna and the miscellaneous wiring necessary to hook it all up. To my surprise the installation was easy and the directions complete. It was up and working in a matter of a few hours. Wow! We now have good cellular service inside our home and on the patio outside. Plus, we can both use our cellular telephones at the same time and without wires. Great technology. Thank you Wilson Electronics for a great product. It really works!

Antenna Solutions to Increase Cellular Coverage and Improve Data Throughput

Wilson Electronics has been a leader in the wireless communications industry for nearly 40 years. The company designs and manufactures amplifiers, antennas and related components that significantly improve cellular telephone signal reception and transmission in a wide variety of applications, both mobile and in-building. Their products allow Multi-Tech cellular wireless modems to expand their coverage and take full advantage of the available signal.

“Wilson Electronics amplifiers and antennas significantly increase cellular coverage and improve data throughput,” explains Lee Stack, Business Development Sales Representative for Wilson Electronics. “For example, if a Multi-Tech modem with a capacity of 100 kilobits is communicating at a rate of only 50 kilobits due to poor signal, a Wilson amplifier/antenna system can boost the signal and enable communication at the full 100 kilobit rate. If the amplifier and antenna are properly installed, location of the modem becomes a non-issue.”

Wilson Mobile Amplifier System

Wilson Mobile Amplifier System

A mobile amplifier system gives you the freedom of movement. Whether you use your cell phone or computer for business or pleaseure, with a mobile amplifier system, you can get the same quality signal and speed while traveling that you get sitting near a cell site. The mobile amplifier system uses a magnet-based antenna that is mounted to the roof of your antenna to give you an amplified signal no matter where you go. This helps to eliminate those "dead spots" you encounter whil traveling down the road. The mobile amplifier system can be used even when you are not traveling. If you have trouble with cell phone reception or broadband connection inside your home or office, the antenna can be attached to a window with a suction-cup window bracket to improve your signal inside.

Wilson Mobile Amplifier
17 February 2009 | Latest Threads

I used to drop calls on my drive home from work, always in the same spot,
and it was unbelievably frustrating. I had the
Wilson 801212 wireless amplifier
installed into my car and it fixed the problem immediately. I can finally make calls
with confidence and stay connected the entire way home.

iPhone 1.1.4 boosts cell signal strength

iPhone 1.1.4 boosts cell signal strength

By: Ben Wilson

A number of users are reporting that iPhone software/firmware 1.1.4 does indeed provide a healthy boost in cell signal strength, which was severely degraded for some users under the 1.1.3 software/firmware revision (prompting a series of boosting methods including one that involves scotch tape). This enhancement stands in addition to a series of other undocumented fixes in 1.1.4.

Some positive reports from iPhone Atlas readers:

  • "I am getting 2-3 bars and solid edge in the Chicago Union Station north bound Tunnels. Normally would be no bars and EDGE would be sketchy. Leaving the tunnel I get instant signal. Before it would be 5-10 min before I got even bad connectivity. Loving it!" -- Jeff Rowe
  • "I used to have an intermittent weak signal in my condo. ?No more since 1.1.4." -- Paul Barunas

Apple updated the iPhone modem firmware with release 1.1.4, bringing it from version 4.03.13_G to version 4.0.4.05_G. The refined firmware is likely the cause of boosted signal strength.

Wilson Amplifiers help in Kentucky ice storm

Wilson Amplifiers help in Kentucky ice storm
On January 27th, 2009 western Kentucky was hit with a major ice storm taking out all power and communication lines. I was able to help emergency workers who were unable to make necessary calls during this terrible experience by offering the use of my *Wilson wireless amplifier I had installed in my vehicle. My customers who had purchased amplifiers from me have shared their stories of relief at being able to reach family and help during this stressful time.

When our local government got word of how Wilson amplifiers provided the only communication, I rushed an order of 45 amplifiers for them. Thank you Wilson Electronics, I don’t know what we would have done without your products.

* The above testimonial refers to our 801213 wireless amplifier kit which includes a high gain 12” magnet antenna and cradle plus with built in antenna which allows for hands free operation.
