I have a 10B1 with ROM 4.02.04 and Radio version A.20.10. I am with Cingular/AT&T, and I have a wireless extender in my house that gives me a constant 4 bar signal on my Treo and two other cell phones. My SX56 gets, at most 2 bars and often none and frequently requires a soft reset to re-initialize.

Is there any way to improve antenna effectiveness, mechanicall or otherwise, or is there a radio version that provides better reception?

Appreciate any help or ideas.

We are working on the problem, please post in the "Poor cellular reception.." question.
I'm going to try a cirkuit that goes behind the battery, please take a look in the "Poor..." post were you'll find a link to the gadget, see if you know it and if you think it may work or its just a prank, like those TV ads.
Regards

Alejandro

Thanks, Alejandro. Before I put the Wireless Extender in my house, I tried the inexpensive stick-on enhancers on a couple of mobiles and had little to no improvement in reception. Let me know if it works better for you.
