Over a hundred miles from Pinetop! It is way east of here. I'm at 6200 feet 2 miles from the top of the Rim on HWY 87 at the very northern tip of Gila county.
I have one of those black phones also. Unfortunately it cannot even spell 'cell'!
I have considered an exterior antenna (6 years ago) but service has gotten marginally better since then and I was out of the state for most of the previous 5 years!
No land line so no dock and whatever! Cell phone is my only phone service. More often than not lately incoming calls have gone to voice mail even though my phone was one and on me, yet all I heard was a a 'ding' to indicate a voice mail. That little 'ding' seems to take far less power than an actual call. And the battery runs down quite a bit on a 20 minute call.
