You can post the pics anywhere you want. If you reference the Site ID in your post, it must be in the Sponsor section. You can take a picture of the Site ID if posted and that is allowed in the public section.

When somebody used a site ID the last time they got ripped for saying it was sponsor information . But in all instances it was actually a site ID to locate any towers when you walked up to it just trying to clarify. I posted the site ID over year ago no 1 yelled then but they are now

Please don't talk about your slow speed or your high speed. Let's talk about what you see on the tower up or down or if there's fiber be placed or cable workers

Not sure if this was directed to me or not, but im going to answer like it was. I had no plans on talking about speeds. It was going to be qll about the towers, which includes whats on the ground and whats up on the tower.

If someone gets the Site ID from the site, people should post the pic of it so our moderators don't think you are posting Sponsor content. Easy enough.

I heard from a source one of the sites in Howell, Michigan is now complete with LTE. It may or may not be live at this time. But Samsung is calling for inspection. Yay! Finally.

I am so enthusiastic for the first site to come online! What a great way to start the new year! A nice purple LTE dot on sensorly might call for a trip out just to let my s3 see the light of LTE for the first time.

 

Hopefully my area (Romeo) won't be far behind! Thanks to everyone on this site for all your help, and happy new year!

I was gonna say- Howell's only an hour and a half away... might be a trip that way in my near (tomorrow) future... Which site is it?

I don't know yet. I'm waiting on the response from the source.

I just drove through the Howell area on the 30th. Nothing on sensorly. Either LTE wasn't unblocked on that tower, I didn't drive by that particular tower or my EVO LTE didn't grab it if I was within range.

Did you drive by a sprint tower and take pictures of it??

Howell is about 30 minutes from me and I've been looking for an excuse to go on a nice cruise in the LS. Might have to go check it out if we can get a location

Currently it is unknown on the location and I dont believe that information is going to be posted in the public forum. It will most likely be in the sponsor forum.

Edit: stand corrected see my post below keelerman

] rob has some sites as " in progress" in Howell on the nv complete map, looks like there may be some information from what I see with locations

True but he can not see thoses. Stopsign to see the locations your going to have to become a sponsor to see the in progress sites.

I simply wanted to give a first hand account of what I did/did not experience driving through Howell. This all went down a day before Robert gave us his update else I would have made determined efforts to verify LTE was active and map what I could. I'm just saying on my end I did not see evidence of LTE being active yet while leaving the door wide open for any and all variables as to why I didnt see it.

 

Knowing now that LTE is on the cusp of being lit up around here then heck yeah I'll pull out all the stops. If I see it myself or get a heads up on towers in Fenton, holly, grand blanc, flint, Hartland, Brighton, and Howell areas then I will map LTE every second I get. I'm still trying to fill in 3g coverage in these areas.

Odd, I seem to be unable to "follow" this thread. Following other ones works fine...
be glad you can't follow it. Every time I get some kind information it's all useless. . You guys keep talking like some kinda nv activities going on but all you're doing is chikjajur chatter. There is a conversation button that you could talk with another member don't waste everybody else's time. That's just my 2 cents

    • T-Mobile and EQT Announce Joint Venture to Acquire Lumos and Build Out the Un-carrier’s First Fiber Footprint https://www.t-mobile.com/news/business/t-mobile-eqt-jv-to-acquire-lumos
    • Unable to confirm if it's really off but I noticed this morning that I'm no longer connecting to Band 41 on my home site. Switching my phone to LTE-only pretty much always put me on Band 41 since it was the least used band on T-Mobile's network. Now I'm only able to connect to Band 2/66. Not complaining because it means speeds are faster on LTE and maybe 150MHz n41 is around the corner.

    • Definite usage quirks in hunting down these sites with a rainbow sim in a s24 ultra. Fell into a hole yesterday so sent off to T-Mobile purgatory. Try my various techniques. No Dish. Get within binocular range of former Sprint colocation and can see Dish equipment. Try to manually set network and everybody but no Dish is listed.  Airplane mode, restart, turn on and off sim, still no Dish. Pull upto 200ft from site straight on with antenna.  Still no Dish. Get to manual network hunting again on phone, power off phone for two minutes. Finally see Dish in manual network selection and choose it. Great signal as expected. I still think the 15 minute rule might work but lack patience. (With Sprint years ago, while roaming on AT&T, the phone would check for Sprint about every fifteen minutes. So at highway speed you could get to about the third Sprint site before roaming would end). Using both cellmapper and signalcheck.net maps to hunt down these sites. Cellmapper response is almost immediate these days (was taking weeks many months ago).  Their idea of where a site can be is often many miles apart. Of course not the same dataset. Also different ideas as how to label a site, but sector details can match with enough data (mimo makes this hard with its many sectors). Dish was using county spacing in a flat suburban area, but is now denser in a hilly richer suburban area.  Likely density of customers makes no difference as a poorer urban area with likely more Dish customers still has country spacing of sites.
    • Mike if you need more Dish data, I have been hunting down sites in western Columbus.  So far just n70 and n71 reporting although I CA all three.
