Finally! Glad to see its finally starting. I can't wait for Sprint to fill in all of 58 between Bakersfield and Barstow with native service and LTE!

Here are the pix For Spark Towers and AT&T hopefully back haul.

 

There is no Sprint equipment in any of those pictures. First set of Antennas are old nextel iDen and the second set are ATTs. 

 

Sprints equipment would be the Samsung ones in my signature.

Well then it must be the Third tower next to it that I did not get a photo of because of the first photo showing Sprint on the box & not Nextel/Sprint & I know that the other was At&t yet don't know if that was for back haul or just for At&t only will get better pix in the morning if it is no longer raining thanx for the heads up

The tri-towers at the 99 - E 58 junction! The only WiMax tower in Bakersfield is on one of those towers. Nice to see Band 41 LTE too now.

As far as I could ever tell, only one.

That tower must be in a good location because it covers a nice chunk.

 

Nope there has only been 1 WiMax site here & it was sad to even see it then

 

I checked the coverage map again too and yes it seems like to be one. I always connect to that tower when I fuel at Costco.

Protection site. Meant to cover lots of ground. I think Costco is about 1 1/2 miles from the mentioned cell site.

    • Someone told me a couple years ago, that there were problems getting certain modems to aggregate overlapping spectrum even if the overlapping parts were actually blanked. So I think there might be firmware issues that need to be resolved first, which T-Mobile might not consider worth the effort for 4MHz at this time.
    • Tbh not that surprising. Every ISP seems to want to have an MVNO to pitch to their customers to make them stickier and maybe make some money in the process. And unlike USCC the MVNO should be able to cover TDS's entire wireline area, with infrastructure costs that are borne by someone else. Entertaining, yes. Surprising, not really...particularly when competing against Comcast or Spectrum, or even eventually T-Mobile fixed + mobile. This also strengthens my bet that they'll rebrand all their fixed wireless stuff as TDS, as that runs on spectrum they're keeping for now.
    • No? RCS on Google messages works great for me, messages between anyone with RCS enabled go through with no problems. Don't remember the last time I had an issue. I only have issues with people on iPhones on different carriers from T-Mobile.
    • Has anyone experienced a ridiculous amount of difficulty with Google messages with RCS enabled?  It has been a train wreck for me for the past year so I now use WhatsApp.  That works very well for all of us.... Android and iOS.  
    • Probably not worth the fiddling given that that's a few percent of the band. Also, if they really wanted to push my assumption is there are still guard bands in play for the n41 carriers so they could fit two "100 MHz" carriers into 194 MHz anyway. Looks like minimum guard band is less than 1 MHz and a 100 MHz channel is only 273 30 KHz resource blocks, which is a bit over 80 MHz total, so if they really wanted to pull another 5% or so capacity out they could.
