Anyway good to see another one. That's actually possible. Consider the terrain and how weak his signal was. Confirmed there is a TON of farming between Alexandria and Centerburg. Switch google maps to satellite. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

andycapps Posted July 30, 2013 Share Posted July 30, 2013 6630 Bloomfield rd 43011. 1900 and 800 3G and 1900 LTE. Near mount Vernon, its up on the map Impressive that they launched 1900/800/LTE at the same time. Hopefully some more action closer to town soon. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rf40928 Posted July 30, 2013 Share Posted July 30, 2013 2 towers in 1 month would be awesome. I look at it as the rollout doubled in speed! The first Columbus tower was only 6 weeks ago ( 2nd week of Jun, no ? ) 'IF' there was a 3rd tower in another few days - That would make 3 towers within 6 to 7 weeks.. Cincinnati has went from 'zero' LTE sites to FIVE sites in about 4 weeks.. So with Columbus anything is possible from here on out.. Even if you look at the NV Site Acceptance Report Updates.. many areas are getting NV LTE updates only days apart - and this includes many areas already launched. Of course Sprint is launching areas that are sometimes only 60% done - but at least we can see they 'really do' continue to finish those areas in the Site Acceptance Reports..

True true. thenight, what do you mean by running the ethernets? Are you talking about how at sites they're working on they could be temporarily turning off the cabinets while they connect the new ones to fiber that has been run to the site?

The press has been putting the screws to Sprint lately. I checked it out.. and.. the TWO parts that got my attention: A) "Get ready for Sprint unshackled....The Overland Park, Kan., company is poised to step up its game on multiple fronts in the coming months, with plans to get more vocal on the marketing front and to improve its service by accelerating its network upgrade plans." Hesse said on a conference call Tuesday he believes his company will build a network that is similar or superior to rivals by late this year or early 2014, and that consumers will start hearing about it then.

I believe Robert said before its technically possible to hook up legacy equipment to fiber backhaul but not sure if they often do it. Requires some sort of conversion kit?
