S4GRU/Robert Schedule

Howdy y'all. Hola amigos! Hey...wuzzup?

 

I am going to be slow to respond in many instances the next two weeks. I leave for vacation on Thursday morning and I'm extremely busy before leaving. At work and personally. I leave you in the competent hands of our Staff and Moderation Team. AJ (WiWavelength) and Roy (themuffinman) also have Moderator controls during this time to help Scott (Pyroscott), Dave (twospirits) and Deval (Deval).

 

I will be checking in at least daily, and sometimes more often. But please be patient with me in responding to forum posts, article comments and PM's. I would really appreciate if our more senior members can help answer questions that you know the answers to. Especially market inquiries.

 

Also, if any of our staff want access to our Facebook account, I'd be happy to give you Admin rights to the page to help me out while I'm gone. It takes more patience than dealing with the boards though.

 

Before leaving on Thursday, here are my priorities:

 

High Priority:

 

Ft. Wayne/South Bend Article

Miami/West Palm Premier Sponsor Map

 

Medium Priority:

 

July Schedule Maps

Tampa and Orlando Premier Sponsor Maps

Radio Performance Comparison Article

 

Low Priority:

 

Post/Comment Responses

PM Responses

Facebook/Google+/Twitter responses

 

I plan to do any NV sites complete updates remotely, whenever they should come in.

 

* If there is anything not on this list, but I said I would take care of, feel free to post a reply post below. And then I will prioritize it. Thanks!

High Priority: Enjoy your vacation.

*Fixed*

 

As I think about this in light of something that AJ wrote in another thread, maybe doing work on this site while on vacation and not encumbered with job responsibilities is part of Robert enjoying his vacation.

What is wardriving? When it comes to modern vernacular, I can be pretty unhip. I am a major dork.

Driving around looking for unprotected WiFi to latch onto. Cheaper per gig than Vzw 4G...if you don't count the gas.

I guess my meaning was more geared to looking for more cell sites to "out" on the forums..

 

We already have a full list of cell sites for Sprint here, and nowhere near Robert will be getting LTE soon. So it's not really necessary to look for stuff like that :)

 

On the other hand, I'll be in three different Sprint LTE markets over the next week or so (DFW, San Antonio, Austin) so I will definitely be doing cellular wardriving 8D

Give us an update of how the cell service is out there. Maybe that guy from SD that was posting a while ago can show you the locations of South Dakota's 3 Sprint towers... and 1 WiMax tower. LOL

Yeah, I once mistakenly gave him about three-fiddy. I won't make that mistake again.

So much for getting it all done. I'm leaving for vacation now. I will check in with you guys at least once per day. I get back on Friday, July 27th!

Jeez that brings back memories. I remember doing that with my Orinoco card, magnetic mount antenna on the roof, and Garmin GPS hooked up via serial cable mapping things out. Then I would submit to the national map. Had to be over 8 years ago. Used to be a ups tech and drove around a lot. I didn't need the WiFi though as I had a vzw card for work. Just did it for fun.

I am now home. Slept in my own bed last night. Have lots to do this weekend, but I'm going to try to get back in the swing of things today. It was nice to have a full vacation.

    • Just revisiting the RCS issue and discussing another point I find odd.  Yeah, my family and close friends and most coworkers still mostly use whats app in our chats due to the odd RCS issues.   Some have Apple phones, some Samsung.  But using Facebook Messenger or Whats App handily eliminates those issues.   But the other thing I find odd is how all the information out there states that to use the Smart View app to mirror your phone to your TV that your TV and your phone have to be on the same wifi network.  That is 100 percent untrue.  I've historically not had wifi at home and only use it in our common areas in our community or occasionally at work.  But primarily I just use my phone for everything and do not have wifi at home.  It's because I haven't needed it.  I've been using all my Samsung phones for the better part of a decade now as my entertainment center because it's simple, effective, portable and absolutely does not require a wifi connection for my TV in order to cast all the content from my phone.  I'm not sure why it is stated that it is required.  The two devices - as we all no doubt know - create a wifi direct connection between the two devices in order for smart view to work, however, no general wifi network is required at all.  Again, I've been enjoying the feature for close to a decade but I find it odd that they say that you need wifi at home to use it.  Samsung television sets, Roku TV sets, LG TV sets (I cast to all of them at work regularly, again, sans wifi) and TCL TVs are all compatible.  There are likely more but these are the ones that I regularly screen mirror to, again, without the two devices being on the same network (this is separate from the notion of creating a wifi direct connection between the 2 in order to enable the service). This is the sole reason I only buy Samsung phones.   I tried a Pixel device before the Pixel 8 (which was the first to allow display out via wired connection for streaming) but it simply did not offer the same feature.   I wonder why they say this.  It's interesting if nothing else.  
    • Yeah, I probably see it through a Washington/Oregon market lens. And maybe a little Nebraska too.  These are the only places I have monitored Tmo overlay of USC closely. Tmo has already added service on 80% of the same towers that were unique to USC just 5 years ago around here.  The 20% left are either too close to an existing Tmo site, or, probably already on Tmo's plans to collocation.  But there is one USC site on the beach where our family likes to go that I am dying for Tmo to add service.  There won't be a lot of new coverage added here. But I have not done really any review in other USC areas.  But I definitely think it's a good move. Robert
    • Found Ericsson C-band+DoD in Brooklyn. What tipped me off was when I mapped a new eNB in this area on Halloween but I didn't see any permits for a new site in the area and the sectors I mapped matched the existing site that was there. Drove by it today and sure enough it's an Ericsson C-band + DoD site, likely one of the first in the city.  This is eNB 110340, formerly eNB 115257. — — — — — Also a T-Mobile new build in Queens. The permit for this one was submitted last year as a replacement for another monopole that got demolished nearby. It must've only recently got installed because it was offline when I drove by it.
