Hi everyone, the phone I got in college that I am thinking of replacing
had amazing range in college, and when at my grandomther's house and this
and my location now  is relatively flat.  It is a 900 MHz phone, but I
can't get the range to improve here, and I have put it in a great location
for RF transmisions, up stairs close to a window, but in the dorm I
couldn't put it near a window, and got great coverage on it.  I know that
C. Crane had one that there was a record of a few miles with it.  I can't
recall the brand of it now though.
