Residential cell phone (antenna ?) 4 sale ?

[kdc1899 1]

My TW's family lives in the sticks and TW wants to call mama and check on the buffalo from time 2 time. I bought mama Thai very nice Nokia and that purchase has helped, little bit, with reception. Is there an antenna type product I can purchase (and send up 2 Issan) for better cell phone reception?

 

Thanx in advance.

Get her to flog off about 100sqm of worthless rice paddy to a telephone company and put a 20m mast up ?

worthless rice paddy

 

Three words that I would never say, consecutively, in one sentence, in Issan.

Thanks for the input though.

My girl hails from Non Sawan near Nangrong in Buriram and in the space of less than 500m from her family's house there are 3 masts for 12call, Orange and DTAC. All are fenced off and have air conditioners but are very small, one is perhaps less than 50sqm. Not on rice paddy but more expensive arable (building) land.

 

Not really a joke though as there may be some income to be derived either one off or annual as well as improved service. Perhaps free calls for her family or some other incentive.

 

As a matter of interest, DTAC were offering SIM cards whereby you could call Issan for free if calling from outside Issan. Bloody good deal I think.

That is very interesting. Mama Thai has DTAC sim card. If TW could use a cell phone (instead of VOIP) then maybe, pompem solved.

Thanks

I'll do some googleresearch
