Nice! How is the range in comparison to 1900?

Its slightly worst from what i can tell. The tower is 4 miles from my house tho. Those RRUs they use do seem to do the job tho for the most part. Id say over all pretty much like 1900.

I think Toledo should be getting it soon..my tower is not even close to high capacity im still able to get close to 10 megs down with a 105-110 dbm on 1900 at like 5pm. But over all good news for us all...but Ryan haha :)

Does Signalcheck show what frequency the tower you are connected to is using?  Mine doesn't seem to do that.

Not sure about the free version.

 

Pro has Sprint (band 25), Sprint 26, and Sprint 41 as the provider names.

Well its snowing in ohio with like 20mph gusts of wind. and it was only like 70F just a few days ago. frick this state. FRICK IT!

 

EDIT: also that bit of purple on findlay road in lima was me. i was playing with airplane mode trying to get a signal just for the fun of it. as the map shows it was incredibly weak at around -110db or so.

OK bad news only 1 of the 3 towers is actually broadcasting LTE in lima. and the one tower i did connect to was definitely set up for max area coverage as right next to it i was pulling a 1x signal of like -65dBm and the LTE was around -85dBm. moving away and around the tower i never saw it get lower than like -75dBm

That will happen for some reason. When Toledo was getting 2 or 3 accepted a day itd be a few days before it was live. Keep an eye out tho i have a feeling again just my opinion that the other two towers may be accepted soon, just a guess but id say a week or less maybe.

    • 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.

    • 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.
