cell phones

IMHO when it comes to phone quality LG phones are the best.

I have owned LG's, Kyocera, Samsung, and Motorola phones over the years.

LG was by far the best in terms of range and overall quality. Samsung makes a decent product too.

Kyocera is a joke and Motorola phones are a high priced joke as far as I am concerned.

WHile they are getting somewhat hard to find anymore, anyone who is traveling around the country needs to still get a tri-mode phone if at all possible. There are still some areas where you can only get an analog signal and if you have an all digital phone you are SOL in those areas.

BTW: When I was OTR I had Verizon service. Never had a real issue with them. With the tri mode phones I used I was rarely ever totally without a signal and I took that phone into every lower 48 state except RI. 90% of the time if I did not have a signal it was in the Rocky Mtn's when a big hunk of rock was between me and the cell tower.

I am sorry but what is a LG?

LG is a brand name. They make electronic devices, home appliances and other products.

Many cell service providers offer LG phones, but not all of them.

A good head set is a must I never leave home with out it. The kind I have found that works best for me is the one with a wire and a rubber hook that loops around the lower back of the ear, it looks like clear rubber and helps keep out a lot of noise. I like this device because I can carry it in the bag with the phone if the device is too big to carry everywhere you will not have it when you need it.
If you are having trouble with calls it might be the phone too some of these phones are poor quality and are a major cause of dropped calls I had one of those I-phones and the reception and quality of the call was amazing but I returned it because I was too afraid to loose it or drop it if i loos ethe cheap one it is just 25 dollars lost but if i loose or even drop the i phone it cost 400 dollars that is like loosing a laptop.
I have come to the reality that we are blessed to even have phone and wireless internet we can keep up with things for a fee I remember the days when I had to find truck parking and a pay phone every time my boss beeped me. That jerk would page me every 30 min sometimes. He would do this to delay me so he could buy more time to locate an inbound load.
