Dkoellerwx Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 This is where it is located .. I just thought this has to be a sprint site .. everyone else has tower in that area Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Show us what is at the base. The antennas alone can't tell us much.

At night/early morning it will push 200+ 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tengen31 Posted October 17, 2017 Share Posted October 17, 2017 I can see that. I was just recently there and some areas have way improved, most stagnant and consistent with the past. I heard more B41 is coming online more there. The 5x5 only main reason for the poor results. Hopefully 1st half 2018 will be even better.Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

An antenna is not a new sector unless it has different sector coverage configuration. Those triband antennas have the same sector coverage setup as the 800/1900 hex ports so it's the same sector.

However, I don't have the specific date but the C block of 30mhz total was leased to AT&T. I will have to check the spectrum dashboard if the lease expired and has since returned to sprint. Edit. Obviously something has occurred as the picture posted is in the C block. Also Band 25 G block is deployed down there so it could be that a sliver of the C block has been returned and subsequently the G block has been expanded.
