Grab your tinfoil hats and prepare for some spotty service, folks. We recently ventured into the wilds of cellular connectivity with a crucial poll for our newsletter subscribers. The burning question was simple: what’s your go-to RV phone signal booster when you’re chasing horizons and dodging bars of service? We wanted to know which brand reigns supreme in the never-ending battle against the “No Service” monster. It turns out, the most popular answer wasn’t a brand at all, but a statement of defiance. Don’t forget to vote in our future polls to make sure your voice is heard in these highly scientific, absolutely critical investigations into RVer life!

The Great Booster Breakdown

The results are in, and let’s just say they were… overwhelmingly clear. Here’s how our adventurous readers voted:

Booster BrandPercentage of Votes
WeBoost4%
SureCall4%
Wilson0%
Don’t use one92%

The “No Bars” Bar is Packed

A staggering 92% of you said you don’t use a booster at all. This isn’t a niche group; this is the entire choir singing in glorious, disconnected harmony.

It appears the preferred method for getting a signal is to hold the phone aloft while standing on the roof. Or politely asking the nearest squirrel to relay a message.

For this majority, “boosting” might mean boosting their patience. Or boosting the volume of their screams into the void when a video buffers.

The Loyal Few & The Ghost Brand

To the 4% who champion WeBoost and the 4% who stand by SureCall: we salute you. You are the prepared ones, the clear-voiced prophets in a land of dropped calls.

You likely have the luxury of finishing a sentence with “Can you hear me now?” without it being a genuine, desperate plea.

Then there’s Wilson, sitting at a cool 0%. Not a single vote. We’re not sure if this is a branding issue or if the name just reminds people of a volleyball from a movie about being stranded.

Conclusion: Embracing the Digital Detox

So, why did the results landslide toward the “don’t use one” category? We have a detailed theory. First, let’s be honest: these gadgets can be an investment, and many RVers are masters of the “make-do” mentality. Why buy a booster when a strategic two-step dance near the septic tank might snag one bar?

Second, there’s a not-so-secret love for the excuse that a dead zone provides. “Sorry, boss, can’t possibly check that email—I’m in a canyon of disconnection!” It’s the ultimate, blame-free digital detox.

Finally, for many, part of the RV escape is about unplugging. That “No Service” notification isn’t a curse; it’s a permission slip to truly relax. The results scream that while connectivity is nice, the freedom to be gloriously unreachable is even better. The real signal many are boosting is their peace of mind.
