If anyone is planning to use a Verizon cell for family contact or necessary biz while at HH you might ask around with friends etc and see if you can borrow a booster.
I have Verizon service and have always found over the years at HH that the best location for transmitting & receiving calls is at the gate or 10-12 ft. into the field that is used for parking, behind where they stage the golf carts. Any other location not on top of a mountain is very problematic at HH.

So I was at an invitational shoot at Hidden Hollow today and checked my iPhone signal (Verizon and without my booster) in the referenced location. Phone readout showed only 1 bar 1X at about 2 pm. Tried to call and text my wife from there but no dice. Everywhere else including on top of the hill course showed "No Service". Now, maybe the atmospheric conditions were unfavorable today or some other factor was at play. Just sayin.
