An illegal cellular telephone repeater?

The following article recently appeared in the news for a
southern California mountain community:

"The fire chief needed his cell phone to work at the cabin they bought and found this great solution. You can get them through the link he provided below.... Appreciate any feedback from others who try this option."

There is no indication that the Cellular Phone Repeater
shown on the referenced web site has been FCC notified, approved or otherwise accepted by the FCC, and the device may hold the potential to seriously disrupt a cellular network.
