Overview
Reading signal strength on a color LCD, then following an app for installation, is how this HiBoost booster is set up. The kit lists an outdoor antenna, an indoor whip antenna, two cables, a window cable, power supply and mounting parts.
A screen and an installation app make setup and aiming easier to follow than a booster with no feedback. The limitation is that it requires an existing signal outside, and two coverage figures are listed.
Who it's for
People who want help aiming and installing a booster, with a visible signal readout, are the target. Residents in areas with zero signal, and shoppers needing a clear single coverage figure, should look elsewhere.
Pros and cons
- Color LCD signal display
- App guides installation
- Supports all U.S. carriers
- Long cables included
- Needs some outside signal
- Two coverage figures listed
- Band class entry unclear
Performance notes
The outdoor antenna gathers the tower signal, the booster amplifies it and the indoor whip antenna rebroadcasts it. The listing states one bar of signal is the minimum for the booster to work. Coverage numbers are maximums that depend on building layout.
