Help Extended Batt kills 4G reception

Purchased a Trexcell 3500 m/amp extended batt which goes all day and that's great. However, I've noticed that since having it, the 4G LTE reception has been very spotty only and unless you have a very strong signal. As a test, I put the original 1400 m/amp battery back in, and voila,...the 4G signal returns right away.

Are there any extended batteries out there that do not interfere with th 4G reception???
 
It could be a problem with the antenna in the battery cover more than the battery itself. The phones antenna's are in the cover and I remember about 5 or 6 months ago, reading about some extended battery covers that had a problem with the antennas.

I use the Verizon extended battery and cover and have no problems at all.
