I read the other day in this forum about how to use your body as an antenna to boost transmitters to increase their range.
You will need two things: A car / truck that you can lock and unlock the doors from a distance with your remote key transmitter.
Now, go to a location where you can walk away from your vehicle and still see it. As you walk away from it, hit the key transmitter to find its maximum range to where it no longer locks or unlocks the doors. On my truck, the way I can tell is I can see the lights flash. Yours might do the same.
Next, while holding your key transmitter on your CHIN (Yes, on your CHIN), keep walking away and press the transmitter button from time to time as you get even farther away from your vehicle. Eventually, you will be way out there, but still locking and unlocking the doors.
When I did this today with my truck, the range of my key transmitter literally doubled.
Has anyone else done or know about this?
