I tried this for the first time yesterday and was amazed at the result. The fob worked from about 150 yards away when I put it under my chin. I was stunned.

I did have a line of sight to the car as I was on an upper floor at work looking over the parking lot. No way my fob would work from that far without the chin trick.

This will come in handy on hot days to get the windows rolled down and the interior cooling for a few minutes while I make the hike out to my car.
