I only had about one bar on the phone and I used one of these for a while before I found a WISP in the area. It worked pretty good, gave me about triple the bandwidth going from about 1.5-2 mbps to 6-7. I plugged it right into the verizon mifi puck and just bridged the wifi it outputs to connect it to my home network. Used a weBoost for inside the house to improve other phone signals and still have that setup, it kind of worked for the puck but the external mimo was a lot better.

You can call them to get more details on the ideal setup for your towers/network.

How does the bank make money when it's zero interest loan? Serious question, the article didn't mention anything about it. I'm sure it still costs a few bucks in fees to get the loan but isn't the interest where the real profit is?

This statement is hyperbolic nonsense:

"He single handedly dismantled the CDC when he became president[0]"

Few quotes you might have overlooked:

"repeatedly attempting to slash funding..."

" proposed a 20% cut to the CDC’s emerging and zoonotic diseases program"

Congress did not let this happen and has actually INCREASED the CDC budget.

The actual enacted program budgets for the CDC in 2016 and 2017 were both under $7.2 billion, but for 2020 the budget Congress adopted for it is nearly $7.7 billion.

"dismantle the CDC"- Please, give me a break...
