LOL loved it. It's a HUGE engineering flaw that noone seems to want to acknowledge. Seems that long gone are the days when RF was the norm and now replaced by technology new. Pick up an OHMmeter and hold each cable in between two fingers. One cable in the left hand and one in the right. This will give you your corporel "resistance". Now, pass it over to someone else, and the results will vary. Depending on too many factors to note here. Now, replace said connector with IPhone 4 antennas. What you are doing, by placing your fingers on each antenna (on either side of the phone) is closing 2 independant circuits AND placing a resistance between the 2. Essentially creating a continued circuit with a "variable" resistance. Instead of increasing the Gain by having 2 antenni, you decrease the gain by placing a resistance. A very amateur mistake as far as engineering goes. Didn't know how else to get an e.mail to you. Sorry about leaving it in the comments section of your site. Cheers.
