The 9 dBi gain BLACKCAT! is the most powerful cell phone antenna made for American, omni-directional consumer use, no matter what some others may claim. Radio frequency product performance is controlled by the FCC and if those wild claims were true, they would have been removed from the market.
It is also likely the most durable, too.
This is a package of Five (5) BLACKCAT! antennas as described below. Whole package shipping is FREE.
As Gifts: Call us. We'll gladly ship each to different locations: shipping charge is $6.00 each for USPS Priority, 2-3 day delivery.
Antenna adapters, purchased separately, can be seen Here.
For Home, Office, Car, Cabin
Connections: The antenna adapter connects the antenna cable to the cell phone, as shown above.
You can use the 9 dBi gain BLACKCAT! for more than one device. With the correct antenna adapter, it will also boost computer data cards and air cards. Just get an antenna adapter for the other cell phone or computer air card - Antenna Adapter List.
With Amplifiers: The 9 dBi BLACKCAT! compliments mobile cell phone amplifiers, like the Wilson Model 801201, 40 dB1 gain wireless amplifier and the Wilson Model 811201, 3 watt direct-connect amplifier.
Our Guarantee: If you get a signal outside of your building, but not inside, place the antenna on an inside window sill on the side of the building where you get the signal, and if it does not solve that problem, your purchase price will be refunded, less shipping charge.
If you use it in your car or truck, it will solve your cell phone signal problems when placed on the roof, or your purchase price will be refunded, less shipping charge.
If you don't like the way it looks or for any other reason, send it back and your purchase price will be refunded, less shipping charge.
The BLACKCAT! Antenna:
The 9 dBi gain BLACKCAT! cell phone booster antenna has been solving our customer's cellular signal problems since 2000. Well over 5,000 happy customers use it in their homes, offices, metal buildings, boats and vehicles. It has allowed people to eliminate their high-priced, high taxed land-lines.
How It Works: The BLACKCAT! antenna boosts the cell phone's frequency by 533%. It, with the antenna adapter, connects to the external port on the back or side of you cell phone, if an adapter is made for it. It has then by-passed the 0 dB gain antenna that is on your cell phone.
The BLACKCAT! cellular signal booster antenna is omni-directional, meaning it both sends and receives the signal over 360 degrees. It is 16 inches tall and has a 3 inch diameter magnetic base.
It is dual band, meaning it works on both the 800 and 1900 MHz bands. It works with analog, digital, CDMA, CDMA2000, EDGE, EVDO, GRPS, GSM, PCS, TDMA, UTMS, HSDPA, WCDMA, 1G, 2G 3G and all other cellular signal technologies, except Nextel/IDEN.
Yes, it works great with all Air Cards.

Building and Vehicle: I am so excited! Not only are the dead spots on I-20 eliminated, I get great reception inside my tree surrounded, in the country home where I have never had a signal since my old bag phone died. Poor SBC. They just lost a sizeable chunk of long distance charges. -Pat
Building: I received the BLACKCAT! antenna and WOW! I went from no service to two bars digital service. Outstanding! I can now use my cell phone at my house!!! Thank you so much! -Sede
Building and Vehicle: I cannot believe how good the antenna works. I can dial out in the living room or use my phone anywhere in the Holly Lake area, even among the tall pines. I would recommend this antenna without reservation. -Sam
Camping/Hunting Sites: The BLACKCAT! antenna works great. I can now hear my husband's call from all over the North Central Louisiana woods Your staff was very helpful. -Libby
Ranch House: Our cell phone would show no service until we installed the antenna. Now it sounds like the person we are talking to is in the room with us. To say we are happy would be an understatement. -Eddie (Eddie bought 5-7 more BLACKCAT! antennas for his RV friends over the next year)
Rural Commercial Vehicle: We are rural contract mail carriers. In some parts of the county there has never been service for me, but with the antenna I am never without service and feel much safer for it. Thank you! Rhonda
Metal Building: The antenna works great. In the window of our metal building it picks up two bars and in the house it gets two more bars than the antenna I was using. Thanks. -Larry
Home: The antenna solved our problem using the cell phone in our house. Thanks. -He
Warranty: The BLACKCAT! antenna carries a 30 day satisfaction guarantee and we must receive it in our store by then. You can return it for any reason, but if you would rather have a signal than a refund, call us first. We've been doing this for a long time and are considered one of Wilson's most knowledgeable dealers. You may need a different type of antenna or a 3 watt amplifier.
We don't look for reasons to refuse a refund but you need to send it back to us in that same type condition that you received it in. It can't be chipped, scratched, bent and nothing can be missing. If you send it back looking like a hornet's nest with the thread protector cap missing and the cable wadded up, you ruined it and we will not refund any of your money.
Questions? - Call our store in Dallas, TX anytime between 9AM and 5PM, Monday-Friday CST, 214-774-2588 or toll free, 888-713-1243.
NOTES: The antenna does not increase the phone's wattage. Doing that at the point of the ear is against FCC regulations.
No antenna can send signals through mountains or forests. But if traveling, the BLACKCAT! reduces dead zones.
Many RV'ers have told us that they were the only ones who could get cell phone & laptop computer signals in various parks & campgrounds throughout the nation.
like most magnetic mount cellular antennas, the BLACKCAT! will work better when placed on a piece of metal.
We have many customers, however, that use it just placed on a wood window sill. That is the way I have used it in my home.
