I just migrated from Verizon broadband to Sprint so that I could take advantage of EVDO RevA. I currently have a Booster Antenna and a V620 card.

Sprint shows that my entire area is covered by RevA, but I only get EVDO at my home and RevA about a mile south. I have attached a link to a pdf file that shows a map of my area, my home (X), and the location of towers(dots) according to Sprint.

My question is if I get a Yagi or other directional antenna would it be possible to point the antenna towards whatever tower is broadcasting RevA and get a signal? I understand there would be some trial and error. I plan on driving by today to verify tower location and RevA.

Thanks,

Lonnie

from my house. I am going to order the adapter for the booster antenna and start there. I will need the adapter for any Yagi I use anyway.
