Sorry I wans't clear
I'm not getting ANY service IN OR OUT of the cabin.
    Tried climbing on the roof (A-Frame 40+ feet) and got no signal there 
either.
    Also tried it on the middle of the lake about 150 yards from the
cabin. 
No joy.
As I wrote, the nearest point where I get service is a mile down the road
