Can anyone chime in on these things. Up by my location, a lot of the police cars have a cell phone signal booster. But curious as to how well they work.
My local area has a few spots where you will have 3-4 bars on signal. Then bam, signal lost for 50ft and back on again. Problem is once you hit the deadly spot, the call is lost.

No idea. We have a ton of dead space in our county, even now...

In the same boat.  One end of my town I have full 4G service.  On the other half I’m doing good to get 2 bars.  I’ve been looking at one of these, which is cheaper on eBay, but the mixed reviews has me hesitant.

We have them at work. They seem to work pretty good. The way most of ours are setup, the signal is boosted inside the interior of the truck and that's about it. Step outside and signal goes away.
No idea on the brand.

That would be fine, done need to boost outside the vehicles.
