Was in Disney all week, leaving tomorrow. Had pretty good LTE coverage all over the parks and when I went to 3G I must have been on legacy cause the speeds went to crap. Just wondering if anyone knows where the nearest tower is to art of animation resort cars building. The buildings must be made of steel and 3 foot concrete walls cause I had decent sprint coverage 3G and LTE outside but once inside it dropped to no bars sprint or 1 bar extended that couldn't hold a call or no service at all.

By the tower next to Fullsail, top portion has been stripped bare, but it looks like there are is going to be future add-ons.

There's one like that of of the 408 near the Hiawassee exit.

Was over on merit island today. It's still pretty spotty coverage over there even though they've launched. That will obviously improve in time right?

I think that holds true with every market given the plans to have 800 and 2600 LTE in addition.

That's awesome! When did you switch to Verizon?

Fantasies. VZW LTE is now slower here at peak times than Sprint 3G. In New Mexico, Tmo has the only LTE running above 10-15Mbps, at peak times all over. I sometimes even drop below 1Mbps on VZW LTE now. I'm looking forward to AWS LTE.

What frequencies does the iPhone 5 pick up? I honestly have no idea

I believe just 1900. Triband has just gotten started on MiFi's and is getting ready to start occurring on Sprint phones.

one of a few speedtests I did, and this was from INSIDE the office. I'm assuming the tower was SW of my position as the signal was getting stronger as I was walking in that direction, I'll try and find it when I go in tomorrow.

definitely can't wait for the tri-band phones, granted we won't have LTE Release 10 (Advanced) for some time, but I think we'll be fine with 1900/2600

Triband will be a beautiful thing.

True I don't ever want to go back to these speeds once LTE gets here ever in life

Oh I agree it's been much worse before. Just seems like a big degradation lately. Not sure why.

    • Was in Red Hook again and I swear there are more Link5G sites as there are Verizon, T-Mobile, and AT&T small cells combined in the entire neighborhood. It seemed like every other street I turned down had one installed. Hopefully carriers will start hopping on them soon. Seems like a lot of effort to go through for no one to use them.  — — — — — T-Mobile converted the Sprint site on top of NYU Langone Brooklyn in Sunset Park. I first mapped one sector of it back in November 2023 but I thought it was a small cell so I never pinned it but I ran into another sector today which caught me off guard. I'm unable to find a permit for the conversion so it's definitely a surprise. There's another T-Mobile site 1 block away that T-Mobile initially installed back in 2019 so I'm kinda surprised they're keeping both considering the Sprint conversion is on a much taller building and could potentially provide much better coverage to the entire area.  — — — — — The old permit expired for this site without any work being done but a new permit was just approved a few days ago for a T-Mobile site at this address. Description mentions 3 antennas with 2 RRUs per sector. My guess is they're doing something similar to what they did at 360 Furman St in Brooklyn where they broadcast Band 2/66 and n25/41 from one antenna. It's a bit of a downgrade considering the site it's replacing was a full build with Ericsson 6449s. 
    • Still not seeing any ULS postings for pending T-Mobile UScellular merger in Dane county Wisconsin.
    • Came across another Crown Castle Solutions multi-tenant oDAS node in Brooklyn. Located at 40.7002286, -73.9612666. Nothing on T-Mobile or AT&T so I'm assuming these are all Verizon nodes that Crown Castle is anticipating another carrier will hop on down the line.
