Title: Phone Aerial for car
Post by: Mighty_G on 26 February 2010, 08:32

Had my fiscon fitted a while back which I am very happy with, only problem I have is that I quite often find the signal dropping down to 2 or 1 bars which is a pain when talking. Is there an aerial or some other way I can boost the signal ?

thanks

would the shark fin help?  i understand that this comes with the VW kit, so surely could be set up for an aftermarket?  otherwise i'm sure fiscon would have some advice?

Search for signal booster.
Something like this would probably help

Where do you keep your phone while driving? Even just moving it to near a window would probably help. You probably are aware that it is the phone that will determine the signal strength and not the fiscon but I thought I'd mention it since you mentioned it first  :laugh:
