Before I buy the Sleek 4G
My wife and I are long time users of the sleek 3G. We use the sleek cradle connected to a Wilson truckers antenna, which is mounted on a redneck extendable paint-pole slid into a piece of pvc pipe zip...

Thanks Mr. Wizard.
I guess I purchased the wrong booster? The booster I purchased is model 460007 which I think is the non-LTE booster. I didn't realize there were two different sleek 4G boosters.
The truckers antenna I have is this one purchased in 2011.

My wife's google nexus (4G) phone is in the 460007 booster (connected to the truckers antenna) now and it boosted the signal from one bar to two bars but it doesn't say LTE. I've seen some screen shots of 4G phones and it says LTE next to the strength meter? What I don't understand is this phone has one bar unboosted and it doesn't say LTE so I wonder if there is an actual LTE signal here?
The verizon mobile hotspot feature is turned on with this phone and I'm surfing/posting on that wireless connection now.
Three different speed tests with same server:
DL: 1.84
UL: 2.01
DL: 1.51
UL: 1.98
DL: 1.66
UL: 1.98
According to the verizon coverage website this area is blanketed in 4G LTE signal. I wonder if the sleek 4G-V along with the nexus would result in an LTE signal and if that would translate into increased speeds?
