I suggest adding a "feedhorn" or "reflector" to your house. Take a
careful look at skylights at the home store . and look at your attic
insulation as well. The skylight would be up in the air and face the
cell tower. Cell tower RF and reflect off the vapor barrier on the other
side of the roof into the house. Most attic insulation has a foil vapor
barrier but you *could* one or two bundles of insulation with paper
backed insulation - same principle.
