Default New aerial install on new flats (pic)

Saw this today...

It's a new block of flats in Bedford town centre, and that is the
communal aerial installation. Looks pretty **** poor to me. As does
the quality of the pic, but I only had my phone with me :-)

You need to bin your Sony Ericsson K550i and get something a bit better,
say a Nokia N95. Anyway, from what I can make out, It's a single facia
bracket with a cutting of mast but at least they coverded up the busted
brick ;-)

Then you'll need to take your charger with you wherever you go.

My phone's due an upgrade. There's no zoom function on the camera, so
I had to crop which made the pic much worse.

Signal strength will probably be fine, but if they've skimped on the
external install, god knows what the rest of it is like.

I've a charger in the van so no problems there. I know the battery life
with use of bluetooth and WLAN is only about a day and a half. But I
like the phone and a good workhorse for business with the use of the 7"
screen and bluetooth keyboard I've in the van too.

I'm not God, but actually I know exactly what the internal work will be
like.
