Looks like it!

Hi guys, is this Nokia MU MIMO  antenna with Alcatel 8x8 Band 41? This locate in above Manhattan Mini Storage Building at 220 South Street. This is my home tower. Which at the moment, Band 41 is down since yesterday.

Sure, the picture of the Band 41 sector facing is GCI: 0136A932, 0136A93A, 0136A942, PCI: 316

I'm not sure how long it will take for band 41 to come back online it still down since the 21st of September due to installation of Nokia MU MIMO, even though I'm fine with band 25 10+5 mhz.

The Clear B41 site near my office was being weird all last week. On Monday and Tuesday it was working normal again. Now it's completely turned off. It would be a prime location for M-MIMO

So...

How's it performing vs previously..

It performed much smoother than before got 90 mbps down and 9 up at home in ton of brick walls at 3 PM where there are tons of school kids dismissal from school. I'm going to try it when I wake up at 3-4 AM tomorrow morning to test it again to see any improvement from last time.

Well Sprint turned off the Clear B41 site at East Broadway and Catherine Street Building at the same time when they shut off my home site and Clear B41 site still haven't turn on yet.

So I test it again this early morning it seem to be same download speed but with higher upload speed than before usually get 2 up to 3 up now keep getting 8-9 up consistently. I'm still on s7 edge with newer phone will be a lot higher. Highest so far is 102 down 9 up.

Is it allowing CA? Sometimes when new equipment is fired up CA isn't always enabled immediately. If no CA, that is great speeds.

Yes there is CA but not fully. Right now it weird at the moment for example, when connecting EARFCN 41078 primary it only 2 CA SSC1: 41276, connecting to EARFCN 41276 primary it 3 CA with  SCC1: EARFCN 41474 and SCC2: 41078, connecting to EARFCN 41474 primary it only 2 CA, SCC1: 41276.

Now 3 CA work perfectly.

Nice to see this.

How's the coverage and speeds vs before?

coverage not sure, speeds much consistent 70-110 down and 7-9 up on -98 RSRP signal vs 50-70 down and 1-5 up on -98 RSRP before at home.

The site is still offline. I contacted Sprint on Friday and they gave me a ticket number with no current ETR. I really hope this is for M-MIMO.

Ive tried to force band 4 or 2 no go..

I disabled Band 25, 26 and 41 only to get pushed down to 3G. When I do this on Long Island I get placed on T-mobile. I wonder if its just getting enabled Market by market or if t-mobile has restricted roaming in certain markets they don't want there network to be affected.

This site was back on the 10th to 15th and now its offline again. It getting out of control. I'm really curious what keeps breaking.

    • 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.    
    • What is the cheapest way to try Dish's wireless network?  Over the past year I've seen them add their equipment to just about every cell site here, I'm assuming just go through Boost's website?  What phones are Dish native?
