Why waste and have to fight tinfoil?

Just get a metal container with a lid, like a tin of cookies come in. Functional and stylish!

@SW-User For those who don't want to carry around a bulky metal container, tin foil is an option.

@4meAndyou Oh, portability. Got it.

Around here thieves use repeaters and bounce the signal from inside your house to the car outside, and then just drive away.
