Do any cell phones work out at Woodhill bike park? Telecom?

**sAsLEX** · 13th October 2007, 21:44

I know my Telecom used to work up at the Bombing range a bit further on from Woodhil...so it should do.

Sometimes you can get coverage with either 021 or 0274, just depends where you are and what the conditions are like. Niether is guaranteed but both will show service at times.

I could get coverage with my 021 last time I went mountain biking there. Decent enough for txting, but I wouldn't have liked to make a phone call. Then again I can't make a phone call from my room :/

027 is your best bet. im up there all the time and i can get better recpt on my 027 than i could on my 021

Yeah 025 used to work pretty good, but then Telecom decided to revert to old army technology.

I knew that they were dam expensive. I just plucked a figure out of the air.

I used to take a couple of hand held VHF radios with me. Works great when you lose your buddy and your bike is up a tree.
