[sci.electronics] cordless phones--technical question

bergman@odin.m2c.org (Michael Bergman) (02/09/89)

Does anyone know if there are any non-intrusive ways to make a
cordless phone work better, i.e.  putting a "better" antenna on the
base station?  What, for instance, would constitute a better antenna
for a cordless?  I have a hands-free "phone lite" or some such name
(made by the people that make those receptionist headsets,) and it
works ok, but reception is pretty spotty (even though it claims a
range of "up to 1000'", it gets poor at the back of the house...about
40' away from the base station.)
