Mr Eater, surely you are aware that mobile phones are a manifestation of this big brother society? They can track your every move... record all of your phone calls and messages... it's all part of the conspiracy. You should be glad you can't get reception!
I live in Dekker Road (parallel with Calton Ave) and have two mobiles with different providers (one for work) and reception on both is impossible inside the house; I have to go outside into the street to take calls. Used to live in another road nearby that was a bit further up the hill where reception was marginally better, so I assume it has something to do with the village being in a valley.
Indeed when you think about it the whole of Dulwich is in a valley as it's surrounded by hills. Herne Hill, Tulse Hill, Gipsy Hill, Forest Hill, Denmark Hill, Champion Hill etc and without any masts in the area that's why the reception is crap.

Shit! Didn't think of that one. I can't live without my phone though, so I reckon that if I ditch the contract and get a anonymous pay as you go sim card I should be safe from the opressors.


I think Jah Lush's hills argument sums it up. There are base stations within less than a mile of the village, so distance should not be a problem. Its those flaming hills that are the issue.


What Dulwich village needs is a base station to call its own, best place would be at the Calton Ave / Turkey road crossroads. I shall make it my priority to arrange for one to be errected.

The reason of problems is usually in far location of provider?s antennas and their insufficient amount in rural areas.

In this case the best solution is a mobile repeater

I have bougnt this model https://www.myamplifiers.com/boosters/repeater-ma150gw/

    • In just two days, we’ll take to the streets to show Donald Trump that he and his politics are not welcome here. On Saturday the global far-right mobilised their biggest protest for decades. We want to show that supporters of Trump and fascism are not the majority – far from it. Here are all the details you need for the day. The march assembles at Portland Place, near the BBC, at 2pm (see assembly blocs below). After speeches here, the march will move off at 3pm. It will then march down Regent St, through Piccadilly Circus, on Whitehall (past Downing St) to our rally at Parliament Square. The rally at Parliament Square will begin around 5pm and finish at 7pm. If you can’t make it to the march, feel free to join the rally after work! (Nearest tube: Westminster). The short, accessible version of the route assembles at the top of Whitehall (SW1A 2DY) at 4.30pm to march to Parliament Square for 5pm. You may also prefer to just join the rally directly at Parliament Square.  Join a bloc – and make friends! Our movement is diverse, and various elements are forming ‘blocs’ on the march to emphasise their visual presence collectively. You can join these blocs or form up behind them:   A) Palestine, near BBC, W1A 1AA B) Climate, W1B 1NS C) Amnesty, around junction with New Cavendish St, W1B 1LU D) Migrants' rights, W1B 1LS E) Jewish bloc, W1B 1QQ F) Ukraine, around junction with Weymouth St, W1B 1JL G) Europe, W1B 1NR More stewards still needed Stewards are a crucial part of keeping the protest safe for everyone to participate. They are a visible point of contact for attendees who may need directions or other assistance. Experience of stewarding is useful but it's also fine if you haven't done it before. You will be issued with a hi-vis jacket and briefed in advance and on the day.  Sign up to be a steward Staying comfortable on the day The demonstration lasts for several hours, so we suggest you should:     Bring a bottle of water and snacks (and eat beforehand)     Charge your phone fully the night before, and bring a portable charger if you can     Go to the loo beforehand (really!)     Buddy up with someone, or stick together as a group – it can be hard to find people easily if people wander off     Coming alone? Protests can be a great place to meet like-minded people. If you feel unsure, you can always talk to a steward     Consider the weather: bring a waterproof jacket or wear suncream where necessary     Wear comfortable clothes and footwear, and use our accessible route if you need to (see above) Bring your friends and family on Wednesday. Let’s make this massive! In solidarity, Stop Trump Coalition
