Teddy,
Is it possible that the cell phone would work in some parts of the same
mountains and not in others?  Where I live it is mountains and, at least
they advertize, that the cell phone works in the area.  I guess now I wonder
if it might work at home but not on the trails for some reason.   Does
anyone understand how cell phones work?
