Was running a tad late for work this morning but noticed workers at the old dunlawton tower in port orange, 

https://www.dropbox.com/s/n4jaoagqedlr523/2013-06-24%2008.48.14.jpg (barely see the rope there) I pulled around to where the trucks were and didn't see anything giving me clues to who was doing the work.

I drove past this afternoon after work and they were gone but a long cable (looked like coax but probably a power cable) and the rope were still there in the middle of the empty field behind bee-line. The sites gate was closed and locked and on it says T-Mobile Towers with a notice about birds nests and a large crown castle logo. I'm not really sure whose on the very top, but the panels look sorta like sprints, I'm not really too sure.. I think this was the same people who did work at the tower near Reed Canal and Nova, I thought it was sprint before but there was not enough Ericsson RRU's to look like a sprint site. However there was a loose RRU in the center of the very top at old dunlawton, It doesn't look permanently there so it could have a chance..


Also the city's permit records show the permits for this site expire on the 30th, so another bump toward the possibility of it being sprint..

Wow, I gotta say that's the best LTE speed test I've seen so far. I think I saw someone get 38mbps download somewhere before, but this is the best in Orlando by far.

 

This was at EPCOT today.

Ooohh that's how you knew the Epcot LTE was ready to go, because you are working directly on the RRUs :)

 

I'll be sure to follow your posts closely ;)

I live in Waterford almost all sites have been prepped. Just a matter of time.

well that is awesome! Quick question. I switch between LTE and normal 3G throughout the day. When I do so, I go from around 3 bars in my house, to 1 with LTE. Hopefully I'll have higher coverage when it's launched then?

I pulled 34.85 down and 9.20 up today on the tower just north of Orange City city limits right near SR 472.

That is great to hear. Waterford area has been abysmal lately.

    • Your referring to the $25.00 a month Infinite Unlimited plan?  I don't see any other plans on there even cheaper than that on their website.  I was looking at the Motorola 2023 Edge fwiw as well for $10.00 a month. 
    • A heavy n41 overlay as an acquisition condition would be a win for customers, and eventually a win for T-Mobile as that might be enough to preclude VZW/AT&T adding C-Band for FWA due to spreading the market too thinly (which means T-Mobile would just have local WISPs/wireline ISPs as competition). USCC spacing (which is likely for contiguous 700 MHz LTE coverage in rural areas) isn't going to be enough for contiguous n41 anyway, and I doubt they'll densify enough to get there.
    • Boost Infinite with a rainbow SIM (you can get it SIM-only) is the cheapest way, at $25/mo, to my knowledge; the cheaper Boost Mobile plans don't run on Dish native. Check Phonescoop for n70 support on a given phone; the Moto G 5G from last year may be the cheapest unlocked phone with n70 though data speeds aren't as good as something with an X70 or better modem.
    • Continuing the USCC discussion, if T-Mobile does a full equipment swap at all of USCC's sites, which they probably will for vendor consistency, and if they include 2.5 on all of those sites, which they probably will as they definitely have economies of scale on the base stations, that'll represent a massive capacity increase in those areas over what USCC had, and maybe a coverage increase since n71 will get deployed everywhere and B71 will get deployed any time T-Mobile has at least 25x25, and maybe where they have 20x20. Assuming this deal goes through (I'm betting it does), I figure I'll see contiguous coverage in the area of southern IL where I was attempting to roam on USCC the last time I was there, though it might be late next year before that switchover happens.
    • Forgot to post this, but a few weeks ago I got to visit these small cells myself! They're spread around Grant park and the surrounding areas, but unfortunately none of the mmwave cells made it outside of the parks along the lake into the rest of downtown. I did spot some n41 small cells around downtown, but they seemed to be older deployments limited to 100mhz and performed poorly.
