Re: Checking for legitimacy

I'm not cheap, I'm frugal. :) Besides, I bought one of the first run pre-order units directly. Definitely not a clone.

My TinySA doesn't do the attenuator test. All other tests pass OK. Older versions work fine.

We have a TV/comms tower on the nearby hill with some nice bright red flashy lights scattered up it, helps stop the hairplanes bumping into it.
They've also been known to sometimes attach powerful

Steve and all,
You make a good point but...
Antennas and feed systems don't have flashing lights, fancy colourful

Re: Cell phone signals
Well I was just wondering if anyone had measured theirs and whether it was considered a good signal.
I am evaluating omni cell antennas for my Weboost for my camper van.

Re: Cell phone signals
According to the Great Knowledge Base, the internet, -50dBm equates to
0.000000008 Watts, (1e-8).
