Here we see a rare congregation of feral AT&T trucks, grazing in their native habitat behind the dollar store and recycling place. I did not dare stop my car, for your average AT&T truck start

So I heard some news from sprint that 10 towers in the fresno area are scheduled for network vision and they should be up and running in about 90 days .. The one tower I heard the rep say was on Dakota and peach but couldn't understand what other towers she said .

Was this in a store you heard this from, because from all information we have here on S4GRU pinpoints the start of the Lower Central Valley Market at a summer start, but if they want to start work sooner, we will definitely be happy.

A Samsung source told me a few weeks ago that they are trying to get all their markets started before summer. They really want to be the first OEM done. They want to use Sprint NV to be a spring board for more work in the U.S. Network Vision was the first large scale Samsung Network contract in America. Samsung wants to become a dominant player.

Hence the reason they jumped into the WiMax/TD-LTE RRU's. They very well could be the major provider for TD-LTE in Network Vision 2.0

Have some bad news I called the city permits for fresno and she said that she talked to sprint January and they did not want to follow the city regulations to cover up the towers if they upgraded them and after she informed sprint about the regulations they said they were not looking to cover them up and since then they have not submitted any thing yet . But I did call fresno county building permits and the gentleman informed me sprint was doing a system upgrade in shaver lake ca they were replacing cabinets adding antennas hopefully that's lte ...

If Sprint bypasses Fresno, the outcries from "madder than hell" customers will get them in trouble with the FCC the BBB, and other agencies in charge of their business industry. They have had no problems complying with stealth requirements in other cities across the country. Give them time, they will have to redesign the plans for Fresno. No biggie, just time consuming.

And one more thing, in Vegas, all site plans have been submitted by engineering companies. They could have been the ones giving Fresno problems. Did you get any info from Clovis?

If a city has unrealistic expectations, they will just make them last. Also, Sprint is in compliance with the FCC. They don't have to add LTE or do NV upgrades if they don't want to. I don't know what you're talking about them getting into trouble.

I don't know. I think I was in a hurry typing that out the other day at work. I forgot that Sprint doesn't have build out requirements on G block like other carriers have on 700MHz.

I'm in the Visalia City building inspectors office today. I'm going to try to get to the building permits office before I go out of town on vacation.

The tower sprint has submitted a permit is on Howard Street near river park and freeway 41

Anywhere between now and 6 months it will be worked on, done, and hopefully inspected.

      Was true in my market. Likely means a higher percentage of 5g phones in your market.

      Network Vision/LTE - New York City Market

      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.

      Dish Network/Boost Mobile cell/5G buildout thread

      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.
