tybo31316 Posted September 30, 2016 Share Posted September 30, 2016 Looks like Sprint added a new b25/b26 site near the River City Marketplace near the airport. This shopping center has always had capacity problems. I'm happy to see that Sprint is still focusing on their customer experience. Hopefully they will add b41 at some point. Edit- I don't believe the site is a Sprint site. Sent from my Nexus 6 using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some other band 12 sites I've been has 1 band 12 panels and 2 AWS panels. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some other band 12 sites I've been has 1 band 12 panels and 2 AWS panels.I think I connected to a B12 site downtown briefly, but it could have been a false-positive (going by SignalCheck Pro). According to Neville, Jax should be lit up sometime in Fall with B12. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Next time I'm near the site I mentioned I'm going to see if my daughter has a band 12 device and if it will connect. They were definitely Ericsson AIR panels. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tybo31316 Posted October 13, 2016 Share Posted October 13, 2016 I know I post this every year or twice a year but...... Sprint needs to model every market in Florida at least after the Orlando FL market. Coming down i95 from Daytona Beach on to i4 west. I've held on to band 41 about 80+% of the time. This market is blanketed in multiple band 41 and 25 carriers. Seems like Sprint is focused on major markets which is cool but they need to show the smaller markets some love too. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know what Sprints game plan is but the Jacksonville/st augustine/Ocala/Gainesville/Tallahassee/Lake City market on a whole is clearly low priority for some reason. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is probably due to funding. We haven't seen much activities in San Diego this entire year too. I can say 30%-40% I am on B41. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ascertion Posted October 22, 2016 Share Posted October 22, 2016 Jacksonville will go from no B12 to a lot by end of year, Orlando has some and more coming & route you mention will also get B12. Via https://twitter.com/NevilleRay/status/789617173807321088 I'm keeping an eye out for any B12 sightings. Soon! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It wasnt on every site but i would say 25% of them had it. Sent from my SM-N920P using Tapatalk 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terrell352 Posted October 25, 2016 Share Posted October 25, 2016 How come when Tmobile says 231 million people are covered in wideband I have a hard time finding a tower that doesn't have a 15×15 or 20×20 but when Sprint claims 250 markets or 70% of customers I can still go 100 miles and not see any 2.5 equipment? Makes me think they are flat out liars. Tmobile are liars about there coverage too. 312 million? Yeah right. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ascertion Posted October 26, 2016 Share Posted October 26, 2016 Looks like Sprint's data speeds went down in this half of testing. http://rootmetrics.com/en-US/rootscore/map/metro/jacksonville-fl/2016/2H It does look like Sprint's call dropped/blocked improved though. Wonder if that has anything to do with the change in the amount of customers on the network in the area. EDIT: T-Mobile's call performance went down quite a bit. Looks like they need B12 to offset these issues. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flompholph Posted October 26, 2016 Share Posted October 26, 2016 According to the sites "Data performance" tab Sprint's download speeds went up from 5.2 to 5.9 not sure why their numbers would go down unless they changed their secret curve.

This is a pattern of logic with you -- the "I don't see it, so it must not be true" argument. That is highly flawed reasoning, and you should stop using it.

But you appear to assume that Sprint has lost a significant number of subs in the market. Is that because you, your brother Terrell, and your other brother Terrell see it that way?

tybo31316 Posted October 28, 2016 Share Posted October 28, 2016 Well T-Mobile is kicking butt with their Band 12 installs. At this rate they'll be done before the end of the year. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ascertion Posted October 29, 2016 Share Posted October 29, 2016 There's been quite a few WCS permits posted too, at least for St Johns cty. http://webapp.sjcfl.us/Applications/WATSWebX/Permit/BLPermit.aspx?PermitNo=11607674&PopUp=1 http://webapp.sjcfl.us/Applications/WATSWebX/Permit/BLPermit.aspx?PermitNo=11607569&PopUp=1 Note these are AT&T but still interesting, considering a lot of devices don't have support for B66 yet.

1dante Posted October 29, 2016 Share Posted October 29, 2016 At the UGA vs FLA game in Jacksonville, everyone at the tailgate had Verizon, ATT, or T-Mobile and they all complained about not being able to use social media because of the service while my iPhone 6s on sprint worked fantastic. Not sayin much here but this was my first time being able to laugh at all my friends with Verizon or ATT while being able to show them how good Sprint is these days. They all needed my phone to check scores or post pictures on social media. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
