They are starting the ABQ market with the site next to my house. I just ran into subcontractors for Ericsson who are starting to upgrade my site in El Valle de Arroyo Seco, New Mexico. Unbelievable!!!

OK. I've now uploaded pics. I talked with the guys there. They are electricians hired by SBA. SBA is subcontracted to Ericsson. They are here to install the RRU's only today. My site here did no

Area does have B41. You shouldn't have too much of an issue with traffic at that time. There is a lot of traffic around 3pm till 6pm. Are you flying Southwest by any chance?

No, United. Southwest doesn't fly out of Springfield, MO. Connecting through Denver.

HOLD ON!!!!!

 

Before you guys freak out, look a little closer.  These are SIGN PERMITS.  Sign permits.  Not cell tower permits.  The addresses are for Sprint Stores, not cell towers.  They are also from the SIGN SUBCONTRACTOR.  Not Sprint.  And both issued to the same signage company.  The sign contractor may have gone out of business, or had the contract pulled with cause.  This is not necessarily because Sprint did something wrong.

 

Also, on the other subject, I have never heard of a city fining someone for not completing the permit process.  In most instance you will forfeit your plan review fees.  I work in construction management and have worked with permitting in dozens of jurisdictions in my career.  Fines could not be levied unless codified in law.

Good catch. I see it hope they do to.

Quite possibly. AT&T LTE roaming has been live for a while. Comnet also has LTE roaming in those regions, though I am unsure of the bands they use.

In Arizona Commnet has band 17 I have been connected to. On the iPhone it shows extended LTE and then switches to sprint LTE.

I've posted that on here before, but that's all you can access on iPhone in an ugly, outdated, and unreliable page unfortunately.

For every detail other than EARFCN, compared to tools on android is what I'm talking about.

We're more interested in the equipment broadcasting a 29 GCI ending than frequency. We haven't came across a site with a 29 ending before.

All of these were recorded near the intersection of San Mateo and Central. 67dfe14ea93ab4d90fd5c0d79e8d27b8.jpg7a4a67d376e2c69e0ef6507209c7cf2a.jpg8a106e7e64d4a019451d03279a16638f.jpg642529ab96ffcbf6a51747d35f76921d.jpg

Interesting does that mean they have 4 carriers deployed? That's what it looks like to me.

      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.
