I bought a booster to use in rural Missouri . I could text but calls would drop off after minute. Saved me from having to drive out of the valley I was in. Mobile boosters look the same but cost a lot more . The area I was in lost TV reception with the change from analog and government dropped requirements on phone being supplied to the area.
