gusherb Posted August 24, 2017 Share Posted August 24, 2017 I found another new site going up and this time it's not AT&T or Verizon (Verizon is already on this tower). It doesn't look like TMO....So could it actually be a new Sprint macro!? The only thing I could tell that it might be Sprint is the two equal sized outer panels and shorter inner panel (two B26/25 and one B41 panel in the middle), but I'm holding reservation about it being Sprint just because they don't really ever add sites, and there's already a Sprint site right in that area.

ckfern04 Posted November 22, 2017 Share Posted November 22, 2017 Has anyone else noticed how horrible sprint service (data) has become on the CTA while underground? It never used to be an issue (even during rush hours) but now data virtually doesn't exist. I did notice if I turn off LTE I can get some data - but nothing like it used to be!

Hmight Posted December 27, 2017 Share Posted December 27, 2017 Sprint has 15x15 b25 at midway airport and 3xCA b41. Downloaded 2 netflix episodes in less than 10 mins. Very impressed!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No. UL wise it's limited to whatever is the PCC at the time ie 10 or 5 MHz. DL is slighty affected due fact it's two different LTE carriers being aggregated together. As they're independent LTE carriers and on different (though close) frequencies they are susceptible to other environmental factors which may not impact a single contiguous 15 MHz carrier. In most situations the DL performance would be very close but not identical. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stay warm! Glad to hear they’re rolling them out in the burbs, too! I hope it continues in 2018 and they can fill in the gaps of B41. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WuTang03 Posted December 31, 2017 Share Posted December 31, 2017 I just got these speeds on B25 ? 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JonnygATL Posted December 31, 2017 Share Posted December 31, 2017 Then why the sad face? Those speeds are absolutely fantastic if they are on band 25. Clearly it is a higher bandwidth site with CA. The real takeaway is the great increase in capacity these sorts of sites provide, especially as it relates to future data use. Very impressive.
