DCMarkie: That link is really awful. It's supposed to be showing cell towers but it's showing any tower regardless of use. I ran my area and it's showing radio station towers, paging towers, a cable company off-air antenna reception tower, and private company radio towers. None of these have anything to do with cellular.
Hi S1mba:Perhaps you can enlighten me - I don't understand your comment: how could the antenna damage the phone if I adapted the dimensions for 2.1Ghz?
