I am headed to Boston next month for work. The building I will be in every day has really poor cell reception, I only get a signal in a couple of places. Last time I was there I drained the battery on my dumbphone daily because it was constantly searching for a signal. My question is: if I put my BB in Standby mode will it still continue to search for a signal? Or will it only search when the phone is "active?" If Standby doesn't work for that is there anything I can do to keep it from searching other than turn it off? TIA.

You could always try the program "Radio Saver" w/c helps preserve battery life in low signal areas.
I just checked the CB store & it's on sale for $2.99. It's always worked for me.
Hope this helps you.....
