Please forward info, price, etc. I will need two antennas if this
configuration will work both ways. I could get a CellSwitch, just
trying to keep the system simple.

There is a company that makes a 1/2 wave antenna from Wilson.
Not the CB antenna company. I sell several of them, and they work
great. Generally made for fiberglas semi's, but works well on a home
unit. Can get up to 30 feet of coax on them. If you need more info,
let me know.

A passive system as you describe might work. Use a yagi outside pointed
at the tower, and run it to a gain antenna omni inside. Use GOOD coax,
at least 9913.
STAY AWAY from those active devices!!! For starters, they are illegal
unless you get permission from the carrier (not likely). Poor
construction and improper installation has caused oscillation, spurs,
and interference to other cell carriers, and worse, other radio
services, including public safety systems on 800 MHz.
