    • Drill (may be required for outdoor or attic antenna placement) Check for Signal Strength Before placing a zBoost in your home, make sure that you can place calls on the outside of your home, in the attic, at roof level or wherever you plan to place the External Antenna. zBoost can only bring signal into your home when signal reaches the External Antenna. If there is no signal, the zBoost will not work for you.
