    The good:

    If there is a signal in the area, it works and does increases your signal strength.

    The bad:

    If there is no signal, it’s as effective as a pumpkin.

    The antenna that mounts outside is a bit obtrusive.

    Over time the stock spring it’s mounted to stays bent back from the wind pushing on the antenna while traveling. You can buy a better spring from Amazon though.

    The provided hardware is not stainless steel and in less than a year as rusted on me. Again, can be swapped out.

    You have to be within 36” of the amplifier for it to work. I mounted mine next to my dome lamp which is fine while driving. If I’m out of the truck, it’s useless.

    Many and always modding Wheels Suspension lift Armor Electrical gadgets etc...

    I've been keeping an eye on sales for these. I did see a video about these a while back and went to find it... Its a basic overview on how this guy uses it and how he mounted it. Not a bad way to go... I think its around 18:50 where he glosses over weak signal and how this will rebroadcast the signal inside the truck giving it a boost. But yes, if there is no signal it will not produce one. Its a bit like being in an area where you have 1 bar dropping your calls and putting a giant antenna on your phone so it can utilize that weak signal (maybe making it more like 2.5/3 bars so you can get a call out without drops)

    Interested.

    The magnetic mount antenna sounds like a pain in arse. Or is there some reason I want to take it down frequently? Doesn't MESO have a 3rd brake light with an antenna mount? That sounds better than running a wire though the door.

    You, sir, are obviously a gentleman of refined taste and I heartily concur!

    Back to the weboost - Does anyone know if a repeater is available that expands the signal reach for use once stationary, outside of the vehicle? I've read a few things that boosters work best in a confined space but haven't come across anything if you're able to repeat the boosted signal.

    same. I am actually looking for solutions for my cabin and I think a quality booster would do the job.
