Well things have certainly gotten a lot better in Weston. One of the formerly trouble spots is now a full build that's rocking and rolling. Still one more tower to check, but everything else is top

So in the 2 weeks between my south Florida trips I saw a ton of progress. The tower that serves my parents place went from overloaded and with coverage holes, to band 26/sprint b41 live. Surprisingly the b26 signal was pretty good already, and it filled in all the dead spots.

 

I rarely dropped LTE in my limited driving around Davie and Weston, and was more often than not camping on band 26. MMS worked with no problems, which was very much not the case 2 weeks ago.

 

Now they need to ramp up the back haul and optimize.. Speeds are still low enough that i am guessing thats still an issue. Still..that improved quickly.

So I imported all the B26 hits as I drove around since realizing that B26 was active on my last post to Google Maps this is what I got. 

Of course this isn't a highly detailed map it's just that I got signal often in various places so it's popping up really quickly.

1*800 is there. I have never seen a call go from band 26 to 1*800 before. 25 can hand you to 1*800 or 1*900 but I think band 26 can only hand off to 1*800. Make a call on band 26 then check signal check to see if its there.

With all these B26 towers popping, where the heck is 1x800?!?!

It's wrong. Speeds on Sprint aren't capable of getting the high without carrier aggregation. The speedtest app was wrong.

Yea I thought it was wrong too, till I just sat there, closing the app, resetting my phone, changing servers and all the results were consistent for 25 min straight. Then it went back down. I guess they are working on smtn in my area, for sure.

Does anybody know sprints roll out plans for Spark in Fort Lauderdale? According to the maps Sprint spark is available in many areas however my area Margate / Coral Springs has no sprint spark. Does Sprint plan on deploying Sprint Spark to these last few areas.

 

Orange is 4G LTE, Yellow is Sprint Spark

Any logical explanation? I even restarted my phone and i was still getting speeds over 100 on my LG g3 (non spark device)

Try sensorly. Its the most feature rich also allows you to map LTE on crowdsourced site.

 

I do find it odd that all speed test over 100mbs are coming from FL.

      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.
