Finding the Strongest Signal
When installing your Signal Booster’s Outside Antenna, aiming
it towards the best signal source from you service provider is
important . After you have completed the install, the best way
of getting the strongest signal is to have one person on the roof
to rotate the Outside Antenna, which is connected to the Signal
Booster . Turning the Outside Antenna about 45 degrees at a
time, while the second person is watching the signal strength on
the phone inside the building . This allows you to read the signal
strength from the cell tower . It is preferable to have the phone in
the test mode so the actual signal strength can be read, as bars
are not the most accurate . Go to
www.WilsonElectronics.com
for
help in finding the test mode for your phone . Always make sure
the person inside the building gives the signal time to arrive and
register on the phone . (Between 10-30 seconds for phone to reset
to the signal reading) . Signal readings usually appear as a negative
number (for example, -86) . The closer you get to zero the stronger the
signal . (See graph below) .
