Hi Ronni, I live in Denmark! Beautiful place. If I'd known you were in town I would have loved to catch up for a coffee (or chai latte!). (I extend the invitation to any WAMUGgers who visit either Denmark or Albany - where the shop is...)
I used to live up at the top of Mt Shadforth (about 3kms up the road from Chimes) and the mobile towers are at the top there near 'The Lookout'. When I had CDMA it always dropped out going up the hill and I had no coverage near Chimes/Karri Mia. When I switched to Vodafone I had coverage. The rep was 'kinda' right - it has more to do with the 'hills and valleys' and placement of towers than proximity. But lets face it, who wants to have mobile phone coverage when you're being pampered at Chimes. At least I hope you were being pampered!
