Verizon Wireless
Verizon Wireless was the first to arrive to the 4G LTE race and it has also built its nationwide network based on 700 MHz spectrum, but the primary band for Verizon is band 13. Bands 2 and 4 are used to strengthen the signal in the densely populated urban areas. One important thing to note about Verizon Wireless is that many phones are built specifically for the carrier, including its 4G LTE bands.

Are you trying to get LTE data on a 3G sleek, that won't work
The lte models are backward compatible to 3G and 1x, but the 3G models are not tuned to LTE and can not pick it up

I was thinking of using a yagi or Trucker, which has its own ground plane.

Yes it does have an antenna port.
It is on top same side as power switch. The cover is a little difficult. Just lift straight up.
I glued a 12 inch pie plate with dicor on the roof of my trailer.
The pie plate was grounded to the trailer frame.
Thus the pie plate serves as a magnetic base for my magnetic antenna and a ground plane for the antenna.
It does work with a significant increase in signal strength.
My 5th wheel has the groilla cage aluminum frame which is not good for radio signals inside the trailer.
Search for antenna adaptors and antennas for the 6620L.

Then why do they make an antenna adapter for the 6620L?
I have a Sleek and am not that impressed. Of course, I'm looking for 4G, not 3G. I'm sure that makes a difference. My goal is 4+ mb/sec download.
