Sprint LTE August 2012 Schedule Maps


Recommended Posts

Cool. Looks like the same ones we saw in that warehouse. Did you see the panels? I was interested to see if the had the remote downtilt adjustment equipment on them.

Aren't the tilt controllers thought to be the smaller silver boxes mounted on the bottom of the panel? If so, I've seen them on most if not all of the towers around here.

Yes, the ACU's are on the bottom of the panel, usually 3 of them per panel; 1 for EV/1X PCS, 1 for 800SMR, and 1 for LTE PCS.

Yeah, I looked up the model number from the RRU picture thread and found the same thing. Perhaps they're a standard with the NV rollout? Anyone else found them in non-Ericsson markets to confirm?

I remember when I was looking around that 2 of the vendors were using the rfs panels. I don't remember which but one was using another panel vendor that had the same features. I am sure it is a requirement.

Sprint told me that there is 4G LTE in NYC but is not ready yet so we won't be able to connect to it yet.

 

We have a few LTE sites complete in the NYC market shown on our NV Sites Complete map. However, complete LTE sites will likely be blocked until closer to launch.

I saw you post earlier about 4G LTE coming to most of Florida except for the Panhandle. Any idea when they are going to start on the Panhandle. Panama City Beach especially? Seeing as they have most of 2013 mapped out, the earliest would be 2014?

Work will indeed begin in the Panhandle and Gulf Coast markets in 2013.

Let me apologize in advance for being lazy (not a lot of days off lately) and only skimming through the thread, so far. ^_^ I am pretty sure this must have been asked in some form already.

 

Are there maps showing both the scheduled towers and the confirmed completed towers? It might be hard/not-possible, but worth asking.

 

:rolleyes:

 

Thank you for all the info! S4G rulez!!

Suprised New Haven/East Haven CT isn't on that list, considering how populated southern CT is.. i have problems connecting to 3G :( judging by that list, maybe they're doing the rich towns first. :o

Sprint is not selecting preferred communities first, they are doing the sites that are ready and have the least obstacles first.

Dude that is so unfair! If you're best friend and golf buddy lived there you wouldn't care what neighborhood it was? I mean it's not like their purposely trying to cover your best friends daycare, wife's job, office, and commute route as that is just coincidence! I mean just because Dan Hesse's mother-in-law lives in Northern Jersey isn't the reason they aren't getting network vision updates till almost 2014! Stop trying to give everything a meaning!

 

 

 

:secret:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

LOL!

I think you have us confused with Sprint. We are not affiliated with Sprint and if you took the time to read the content we have created, your ignorant question would be answered. Now, I suggest you quit trolling and go complain to Sprint.

 

If you want to stay here, check out the S4GRU Posting Guidelines especially this section:

Rants will not be allowed. We do not host Sprint's complaints. Complaints about Sprint should be directed to their customer service channels.

    • 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.
