Jacksonville is now showing as an official Spark market!   (Not that anyone needed to tell you that Band 41 was around )

Just tried out T-Mobile for laughs (Test Drive, which is a kind of cool attraction.)  Anyways, I've come to the conclusion that Sprint is better here, coverage-wise.  I'd rather have a reliable method

I'm safe. Sprint holding up well. 4.5 million without power. The eye of the storm coming straight for Marion county with 100mph winds. I hope I have a home to go to when this is over.

Wasn't easy but not that hard. Biggest thing is some of them are not aware of the loop hole to merge existing accounts. Also they don't speak English very well lol

Once I got a rep that spoke English the process was simple. It took me over an hour to do that. Has your account info online been updated to framily yet?

that's the site I was talking about last week when I was posting. I believe that the second panel is a band 41 panel.

I've been watching my engineering screens to see if I get any B41 but nothing yet.

Same here I haven't seen anything on the engineering screen but the lines are still hanging from the tower. So I assume that the work is still on going. I haven't seen anymore of these installs around town. I got eyes wide open though. ????

I noticed the sprint tower behind my house has additional panels next to the existing NV panels. A few weeks ago there were crews working on the tower and it looks like that's what they did. One additional panel for each sector.

 

The setup is just like that picture posted above of the tower in OP.

Sounds like 8t8r!

I can't wait to connect to one of these things to see how much better (coverage wise) the 8t8r's vs the clearwire setups.

When you do let me know... I wanna get LTE Discovery to recognize 8t8r sites on connection. Need a site to test on!

Is it? The RRU are mounted funny. The standard RRU have top and bottom sets while these have only a top set

8T8R setup should have a slightly shorter panel and only one RRU. It can be mounted anywhere...top, bottom, middle. That doesn't matter.
