Hands fee kits

I got nokia 6610i with CK7W kit and also use it with nokia 6225 CDMA when
going offroad. Haven't done anything regarding aerial as I use GSM most of the time , but I can't see any reason why you can't connect a CDMA aerial insteady of GSM one.

I would check with places that install them for info as potential customer.

If you fit an RFI 1795, I think that is the model, it is dual band so will do both GSM and CDMA, no problems then

While there is no external antenna connection on the Nokia 6225, it seems the Nokia GSM antenna coupler "un-officially" works quite well. This is a spring loaded device that sits under the cradle that holds the phone, it places an antenna coupler near the back of the phone where the antenna sits. This is the same principle that some GPS antenna re-radiators use for GPS units that don't have an external antenna. I have done some tests with my 6225 and car kit with a ZCG SG-825 CDMA antenna and it does seem to work, but not as well as an older 6385 which has a proper external antenna socket that disconnects the internal antenna when used.
I have been in places where the phone in the car won't work, but when placed in the cradle it gets some signal and calls work. But on the same note, just stepping outside of the car can get you enough signal to make a call as well!

hi there i have a nokia 6225 and the ck-7w and yes there is no aerial with this kit you have to buy one also the cradle for the phone my antenna is a lazer 730 and works great, i chose this antenna because of its radation pattern in built up areas, we did a test just the other day on the river murry where we go camping,my friend has the same phone but he opted for one of those big black sticks on his bullbar,anay where we go there cliffs behind us and the river in front previos to having this phone there was no signal at all so here come the test my phone no worries ane 6out 10 on reception his set up no reception was he peeee of his antenna is made more for long flat open country so depends where you want to use it iam verry happy with this antenna and not yet found no signal problems, my antenna is situated on my left gaurd and is not to high easly fits under a standard car port. go the lazer site on the net and see the diff. radation patterns of there antennas and make your mind up regards stan.

Michael is spot on.

Although Nokia do not list an Antenna Coupler as an accessory with CDMA phones, they work just as well as they do with a GSM phone.

If you install a Hi-Gain CDMA antenna such as the Laser UC9SF-800-259 and a Nokia Antenna Coupler suitable for GSM phones you will be OK.

The installer that sold and installed my solution also made up a flexible stubby aerial to use around town, as the aerial that comes with the UC9SF is 800mm long.
I have not had to use the longer aerial yet as the stubby has worked wherever I've been.

I was originally looking for a dual-band antenna to use with my GSM phone that sits in the same cradle, but the Installer advised the CDMA antenna is close enough to the wave length of a GSM aerial the it will still get good reception. Certainly much better than the "through glass" jobbie I previously used.
