So can someone explain to me so I can explain to other's on why wireless carriers can't just put up a site in areas where needed. Most people don't understand why carrier's can't just throw up a site.

Thanks

You have to go to the township you have to go to the zoning board and get approval you have to get permits approved you need to pay lawyers to do it. If it's in front of a residential area you would have to fight the community that lives there and you have to get approval from the township to put it up

Well there is structural differences with each Tower. You also have to factor in that if you have to camouflage the site like for example this site near me is a flagpole site. You need to sometimes make it aesthetically appealing to the people living near the site. That takes time to modify and also if you need to negotiate with the landlord of the area the carrier is trying to put up a site. Sometimes the landlord want a certain amount of money per month to host the cell site. And also load Factor like how much can the site can handle in terms of weight from the equipment being put up on it. Also in terms of constructing a new site there's logistical problems like getting fiber to the site as well

Yes that's also a true fact I won't be surprised if they deploy small cells everywhere

Vzw has deployed 100's of them in alot of areas, att is working on them. Sprint is adding them in LA, Miami, NYC. Other areas are plan. I live Minnesota a couple popped up. Haven't seen here in the twin cities. Yet away. Lastest claims were Winter. Sprint needs small cells and,macros in MN still to many drops to 3G.

I haven't seen any small cells in the Twin Cities. I'm on LTE most of the time but I agree I still see 3G a lot. They need to keep improving.

South Jersey has CA and B26, they have for over a year now.

New Jersey could see 10x10 on band 25 in the future if Sprint starts doing it in cities where they hold 30mhz 15x15 spectrum.

Sprint has the least amount LTE. Even the least amount of coverage. That's why they need someone's helps to build out. Softbank doesn't look like they are.

Maybe a Comcast buy out would help

It would. I've heard Comcast has the worst customer service. So I'm not sure about the one. T-Mobile or Dish possible or both.

It would probably make it worse in my honest opinion

      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.

      Good catch! I meant 115932/119932. Edited my original post I've noticed the same thing lately and have just assumed that they're skipping it now because they're finally able to deploy mmWave small cells.

      At some point over the weekend, T-Mobile bumped the Omaha metro from 100+40 to 100+90 of n41! That's a pretty large increase from what we had just a few weeks ago when we were sitting at 80+40Mhz. Out of curiosity, tested a site on my way to work and pulled 1.4Gpbs. That's the fastest I've ever gotten on T-Mobile! For those that know Omaha, this was on Dodge street in Midtown so not exactly a quiet area!

      Did you mean a different site? eNB ID 112039 has been around for years. Streetview even has it with C-band back in 2022 - https://www.google.com/maps/@40.7303042,-73.9610924,3a,24.1y,18.03h,109.66t/data=!3m8!1e1!3m6!1s2ossx06yU56AYOzREdcK-g!2e0!5s20220201T000000!6shttps:%2F%2Fstreetviewpixels-pa.googleapis.com%2Fv1%2Fthumbnail%3Fpanoid%3D2ossx06yU56AYOzREdcK-g%26cb_client%3Dmaps_sv.share%26w%3D900%26h%3D600%26yaw%3D18.027734930682684%26pitch%3D-19.664180274382204%26thumbfov%3D90!7i16384!8i8192?coh=205410&entry=ttu Meanwhile, Verizon's eNB 84484 in Fort Greene has been updated to include C-band and CBRS, but not mmWave. I've seen this a few times now on updated Verizon sites where it's just the CBRS antenna on its own, not in a shroud and without mmWave. Odd.
