Not here dude band 26 drops off to quickly. I've noticed that T-Mobile band 4 travels further than band 26 in my testing. Sprint needs to optimize this market more.

St Augustine was like that when I went there 2 weeks ago. Tmobile b4 was about the same as Sprint b26. It's not like that in my city or further down south. Jacksonville market feels like it has been abandoned.

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.

Honestly at this point the only reason I'm with Sprint is because I'm on a maxed out Framily with unlimited data. Whenever U-Verse starts offering service in my neighborhood. I'm dumping Sprint and Comcast for AT&T.

Yeah I know it feels good to have such a low rate. Framily could have been a great thing. I think it was ahead of its time.

Wow talk about strange timing. So my home site was the last tower in the entire county to get lte and now its the first tower to get nokia equipment. Seen this happening today. Funny because my tower is the second most congested in the county but damn man finally some capacity relief is on the way. fc03aaf6775a4b0886a22516d020ab21.jpgf24b006f2a635c7282ee052c55c9dbaa.jpg

In florida band 26 is extremely common and in many cases already congested and b41 is surprisingly sparse.

Thats correct its hard to find a tower in florida without b25/26 but very easy to find a tower without b41 thus capacity issues are all over the place. The band 25 spectrum swap will solve a lot of problems when ever it is cleared.

Former Alcatel lucent up here I think Nokia took it over

 

Sent from my LG-H900 using Tapatalk

They did which is why they haven't picked up the pace in the southeast region.

Up here it has stopped and is it possible for a bundled T1 connection to provide a 2 megabit connection to a busy tower on CDMA

Hmm then that GMO near me has fiber

 

Sent from my LG-H900 using Tapatalk

GMO and GMR sites can have fiber. In my city we have 2 GMR sites but I have yet to ever see a GMO anywhere.
