I donated and still don't have access. I just want to see if I have LTE in Cedar Falls, IA yet.

I only received one donation this morning from PayPal, and it wasn't for you. Please send me a message with the donation information, or forward to me the email your received from PayPal to s4gru@herronweb.com.

 

Thanks.

I will offer a counterargument: a true "donation" should never have a set minimum. Sponsors -- new and old, at any level -- should not get the impression that they are paying for content or access,

Robert (site admin) is currently in the moving process so membership level changes might take a little longer than usual.

 

EDIT: Robert beat me to it, kinda.

Just sent some dough your way! I love the forum site and would like to become active in providing Information. I have a Sprint Tower that I think has NV upgrades on it and will shoot some pics over.

 

Thanks!

Thanks for a lot of good info.  Sent a small donation, will look at sending more when I can (gotta love having all kinds of emergencies and big house repairs at once).

 

Anyway, thanks for all of the information and technical insight, it's nice to be able to keep on top of things and know what's going on.

I didn't see your donation come thru PayPal. Message me the details and I will get your account upgraded. Thanks for supporting S4GRU.

If I upgrade to premier, is there information for 800 LTE rollout a to specific sites? What about information regarding if a site has had backhaul upgrades? Thanks.

You can tell if a site has had its backhaul upgraded because LTE will be live. As for LTE 800, we do have info on many Samsung markets and and a few Ericsson markets in the Premier Sponsor section. I have more info to post in there, but will not be able to for probably another week or two.

Figured I should donate since I've gotten so much good info from this site. Plus with sites actually going live in the Phoenix east valley area it will be good to know what sites have been accepted so that I can plan some Sensorly mapping trips...

Just donated when will I get the password for the maps

 

A lot of great info here thanks guys

 

You were upgraded immediately.  You don't need a new password once you become a Sponsor.  You should be able to get right into Sponsor forums now.  If you still have a problem, sign out, close your browser and relaunch it and sign back in.

Robert, did you get my donation? I didn't get a message. Or is that only for the first few?

I did. We do upgrades immediately. But I usually don't get around to sending thank yous for a few weeks. I'm really buried with thank yous now. I think I have to go back to early August at this point. :blush:

 

Thank you for supporting S4GRU!

I just donated! :D I felt that I needed to donate for all the help and info I received from this site and its community. I would've done it earlier but those college tuition fees can really leave your wallet empty :P

Thanks Rai.  You have been with us for a long time.  Even before there was S4GRU.com.  I will never forget that!  I still remember your report of the WiMax Protection Site in Kankakee, Illinois.  Good stuff!

Been browsing the site for a long while. I finally decided to join. Im in Shreveport, LA where we are having the Tri band issue. This is not a launched LTE area but LTE is being turned on gradually. Felt I needed to spend more time here and access the sponser maps. Donated a bit ago and look forward to getting upgraded and getting more information and helping my fellow sprint users. Thanks.

Just made a small donation today.  Didn't put my user name in.  Email account from paypal different, so don't know if I need to do anything to get it updated.  Please advise & Thanks for the great site & information.

Just sent my donation. If I need more to be a premier let me know. I'll probably do another in a month or so. Ive learned a few things and stuck with Sprint because of this site and now I am happy I did.

I can't answer your questions about PRL's, but I can help out with the sponsor info.

 

Any amount of money donated makes you a sponsor, and that membership lasts for 6 months from your most recent donation. In order to become a premier sponsor, you must accumulate a donation total of at least $100 (although, due to a holiday promotion, you can become a premier sponsor by donating a total of $75 if you donate by midnight tonight). Premier sponsorship does not expire and you get all the benefits a regular member, a sponsor, and a premier sponsor get.

 

Hope this helps!

      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.

      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.
