Is there anything available that would boost a handheld's signal enough to use a tower that is too far away to use normally?
Are there systems/antennas available for use in a car that would help? The family has several different GSM cell phones including my BB7280, a RAZR and an LG cell phone. That rules out the usual installation kit for a car.
We would consider external antennas, signal boosters or anything that is reasonably priced.
Thanks.

they have repeaters, which many people purchase for boats so they can still use their cell phone signal. i believe now they even make signal boosters for the house too. you could get one of those. just google "cellular repeater" and you'll get some results
