Re: Urgent 5110 Hardware

Just out of curiosity:

Karthik, can you tell the signal strength you are seeing in your
configuration? (through data connection, of course, since you have no LCD)

-->> Probably this is not the adequate place to discuss such matters, if
anybody has a problem with it please say so.

1º - you are using a single wire? where did you hooked it up? to the main
antenna contact or to the back connector?
2º - the lenght of the wire should be of a determinate size, according to
the wavelength of the signal.
3º - There is also the problem of the impedance of the antenna and the
impedance of the antenna outlet on the phone.

I believe that all of these together should be the cause of your problems.
Bad antenna coupling and Bad antenna. You should have heavy SWR and heavy
loss at the antenna for that purpose.

Hope that i have been useful.

cheers
