      becuase mobile phones work on microwaves and not radiowaves i very much doubt whether it would work…the antennas are specially designed for phones with freq, wave length and signal strength… on most older mobile phones theantenna is not just external… itextends inside the phone. But hey.. ill rip up my sh*tty-1-10 (5110) and give it a go…

      GT:- microwaves, radiowaves, lightwaves, soundwaves etc are *all* ElectroMagnetic Radiation… they only differ in Frequency.

      :smiley2:

      Handphones run at anywhere between 450-900-1800MHz. Antennas are tuned to intended frequencies, so it’ll be off by about a factor of 30 to 80.

      Think 1:1 cars… the external mobile’s antenna is never the same length/design as the one for the FM radio (88-108MHz).
