Hey all' date='

 

I'm the one that posted on the Sprint forums about the Indy site. I work just south of 106th and Lantern in Fishers.....I was shocked when I came in Monday and the LTE was active on my phone. Here's my Speed Test.....I also was the one that hit up Sensorly.

Do you work at that Fire Station where the Sensorly blips are located? Oh, and welcome to S4GRU.

Nope......I'm a few miles to the Northeast. It surprised me that Sensorly pinpointed that as the location....I thought it might be a bit far.

There's a couple of more LTE blips showing up in Sensorly at 82nd & Allisonville now.

 

Looks like somebody walked from the parking lot into the Houseworks store running Sensorly. :tu:

A major road construction project is just finishing up (replaced the Allisonville Rd bridge over I 465) so I wonder if Sprint upgraded the tower at 82nd & Allisonville as part of the project. It might have been part of the utility relocation due to the new bridge? I don't spend much time on that side of town so I don't know exactly where the tower is/was or whether it even needed to be relocated.

 

Doug... I agree! Just finished up a growler of Half Cycle last night.

Pics of the tower from last night. Still no LTE.

Off to the other Castleton location that appeared today. Wish me luck.

The second Castleton site... sadu8any.jpgu9yhuvyq.jpga5esyne9.jpgvy4a2ana.jpgpabevusy.jpgebu2a4er.jpg6u4ypaby.jpgy2a2enum.jpgNo LTE here either I tried cycling Airplane Mode, switching to LTE only, and even just waiting. No luck on any method.

I was wondering the same thing. Then again I am not 100% sure what I am looking for.

Here is a before and after comparision I did for Ericsson equipment: http://s4gru.com/ind...ter-comparison/

 

Trying to find a good shot of Samsung/Alca-Lu equipment. The Panels will look the same but the RRUs are a bit different.

 

Edit - Here is Alca-Lu equipment from Baltimore:

this is SUPER exciting! I'm out here in Lafayette. I go to Indy pretty often.

You and me both! I am going to check out at least one of the new sites from Sensorly tomorrow. I am thinking that I am not going to have much luck, but maybe I will get lucky. I am pretty sure at least one that I checked out today is BS. Not sure on the other.

by the way, that Carmel server you are on always give me trouble. The downloads are always way below what they are on others and the Indianapolis server isnt any better. I always have to search around for a decent one, the Chicago Comcast one does alright for me sometimes.

I will try a few others tonight if I get a chance.

Nice that just confirms that they are defiantly working on the towers around there

 

Defiantly working? Is that a Freudian slip? :lol:

    • 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.
