Question of the day .....something been seeing on trucks

[76aggie]

I have been seeing a lot near San Angelo and had no idea what they were either.

We like to confuse the dallas folk

Yep cell phone signal boosters. We have a few on some work trucks.

It won’t be long before they are on a lot of trucks just for the look. Lol.

Those, light facing rear on the top of the cab and a dragging static strap. Rig trash starter kit.

83% of work trucks have them in midland /odesssa. I bet half of them don't answer the phone when Boss calls. Ridiculous

That's the last thing we need! More people talking, texting, surfing on the phone while driving!!

Usually oilfield or remote workers that use them. Out on location in BFE for hours or days at a time, and their truck is their office.

$500?? That thing better work really good.

I've got the newest Weboost but with the normal small magnetic antenna. It works pretty good sometimes but also sometimes my phone works better with it off. I'm still on the fence but really has been useful a few times in the mountains and driving to Cheyenne working on my laptop (wife driving) so I don't have to take a day off to travel. Maybe I'll invest in one of those fancy pear burner antennas for it now that it's fashionable. lol

I think the axis skulls will be fine, and likely did not die of anthrax. Not trying to be a know it all, but anthrax mainly effects animals that have multi chambered stomachs and chew their cud. Axis do not, therefore it does not seem to effect them, and is the same with hogs. This is why out west the hogs have exploded, axis are holding steady, and WT are non existent. Sorry OP, I have no idea what the pear burner thing is.

As others have stated, cell boosters. We've got about 500 of them out in the permian right now. All our inspectors out on the right of ways have to have them to upload daily reports and general communication.

Axis are deer so where did you get the info that axis don't have a four chamber stomach. Buddy of mines lease had just as many dead axis as whitetail from anthrax which is about 75%.

Anthrax will kill just about anything. I was just looking out for the op I would have never thought about the spores in the skulls being harmful until I sat through that seminar at the feed store they had people there that have devoted there lives to trying to find cures for outbreaks and it came straight from them. Sorry for pulling the thread off course op just was sharing information that I learned that might be beneficial to someone
