Inside a Building
1. Move toward windows.
2. Signals do not penetrate ground, therefore, there will probably be no
signal in basements.
3. Reflective coatings on windows reflect radio signals. Try the side of the
building that is least likely to have coated windows.
4. Closed metal blinds can reflect radio signals.
5. Dropped ceilings sometimes hide an accumulation of electrical cable.
Electromagnetic Interference (EMI)
1. Electromagnetic Interference (EMI) is generated by switching circuitry
closets or Un-interruptable Power Source (UPS) systems found near
computer rooms and can block the radio signal.
2. Look for significant sources of electromagnetic radiation. The problem
may emanate from a source between location and the radio base
station.
When to use landline communication
If these tips do not improve radio signal strength, switch to landline
communication. Switching to landline communication is faster than
searching for and trying to improve the radio signal.
