Getting a job deploying network vision?


Recommended Posts

Like a lot of people, some of my friends are looking for work. My circle of friends are a bunch of techies and I was curious who some of the main contractors are that are deploying NV so they could send applications to the right people. Anyone know?

What the? Maybe New Mexico got bumped up the schedule after Sprint figured out that Robert knew so much about network vision...

Exciting. However, these adds appeared for current markets about nine months before deployment started. So if we add nine months to now, that would be an improvement over the December 2013 start I was seeing.

 

Wouldn't that be funny if they moved up ABQ because of me? Not that I think that's true.

Don't worry Robert. You are probably getting your own personal lte microcell outside your house. And the former sprint guy is going to be in a van broadcasting lte everywhere you go' date=' so you always have signal.[/quote']

 

You know, if I was Sprint, I would send Ericsson out and convert the site in El Valle de Arroyo Seco, New Mexico right away. Get the blogger who covers your network some advanced coverage. It would be no skin off their back in the grand scheme of things and helps their image through the blogosphere as I better cover their network.

 

They should just do it. :)

    • 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.
