Network Vision/LTE - Columbus Market

Recommended Posts

So Mr. COZ, want to revise that guesstimate?

Nope. I haven't seen any major moves in the immediate central area.

 

Today's post has been brought to you by Sprint, the letters GN and the number 2.

Iam NOT being negative here, but I dont see how Columbus will be complete by March 2014.  I think coverage will be effective enough for most that it won't matter.. but even looking at many first round markets found here: http://s4gru.com/index.php?/topic/212-network-visionlte-deployment-running-list/   you'll see many of those 1st round markets  are only now in the 90th percentile for complete ( overall ) while in those same 1st round marekts the LTE is only around 70 to 80% complete !


 


I've been keeping an eye on Orlando ( 2nd round ) because I go to that area and its status is about 50% NV and 41% LTE complete. While anything is possible we'll have to see what happens.

I can run over to 71/36 and get some screen shots, Just down the road from me

 

Check the map as the site broadcasting LTE isn't exactly at 71/37. It's on Carters Corner Road.

I don't believe the market will be considered complete either. It's going to be another 18 months before we'll be close to NV1.0 Complete. The great news is, we should be starting NV2.0 12 months from now.

Brice road is also on. I haven't gotten 800 yet as I have to flip out of cyanogenmod to get to the ENG screen, but it has the new NID and 5 digit BSSID.

Are you talking about old brice area?

I was. But now I have my 800 scanners on and its not broadcasting any 800. it looks like it from the other screen though. But I just drove around the site and it prefers to connect to Longview. Who drives the murano? Lol. I got an hour. Gonna go get the panel numbers for mercy road and Carol and Cedar Hill. And if nobody else post the panel numbers for diley road and I'll grab those too

I don't know if this is of any significance at all, but on my travels the last 2 days (Around the east side) my eHRPD is gone and EV-DO is back... I used to be on eHRPD most of the day when running round the east side (Very few hits of EV-DO)... But the last 2 days it's all been nothing but EV-DO...

Locations Include:

Reynoldsburg: Brice @ 70, 256 @ 70, Livingston Ave, Main st (From end to end in Reys) and Broad St (again end to end)

Columbus: Main st @ 270, Broad st at James rd, Hamilton rd from Livingston to refugee, Country Club area (43227)

Whitehall: From fairway to yearling both main/broad

 

Just thought I would throw that in...

I noticed how atrocious service was while at night classes at CSCC/Reynoldsburg high on Monday n Wednesday on the north side of Brice Rd from 70 to Livingston east of brice. Voice n data was extremely spotty n basically unusable. Hopefully a sign of good things to come

Want to do some Sensorly LTE mapping too? Just trying to encourage more involvement.  B)

Don't worry, I did a bit of mapping too.

 

Check the map as the site broadcasting LTE isn't exactly at 71/37. It's on Carters Corner Road.

Actually the site I was picking up the LTE from was the site at 71/36 (it actually sits on South B & K Rd). I will have all the screenshots up in a few minutes

What in THEE hell. Let me find out what's going on. Maybe both sites are active.

2 in 1 day, that would be amazing

 

If you have time, can you swing by the other, just so I can have some confirmation.

Panel mapping trip. A couple of the pics are glitches in SCP I think. It was reporting the wrong cell address but when clicked showed the correct cell.

I will make sure to keep Sensorly running over the next couple days.  I live off route 3 in mount vernon on the edge of Centerburg, and frequently hot up 37 to 71 so I should be able to map some of that.  Not to mention the tower up in my neck of the woods that is working.

    • Probably a lot of Midwest towers. Slight bias since Nebraska is a weird market, but there are tons of USCC sites that T-Mobile isn't yet co-located on. Think a similar situation in Iowa, Wisconsin, and Missouri. But some other markets, like yours, probably don't have that issue!
    • Sticky Customers - YES, and leave them flip to the T-Mobile PLMN when needed and they will be even more likely to Stick.
    • It seems to me that if the goal is to improve rural, the US Cellular buy-out would get them only part of the way there, considering there are plenty of rural areas that US Cellular does not serve.  But I also have a hard time reading it the way I think that article is, that the cost of this deal comes straight out of the $9 billion.  I mean, they're getting spectrum for their existing operations in US Cellular markets, including places that I wouldn't call rural.  (Roanoke, VA is the 9th largest city in the state, for example.)  It seems like some of it should be allocated to rural expansion, but certainly not the whole purchase price. There's also something to be said for getting the customer base of potentially sticky customers who have been used to US Cellular being the only game in town for potentially decades. - Trip
    • T-Mobile has stated 15% of their sites don't have 5g triband. In WV I know WISPs had a lot of 2.5GHz, but T-Mobile was trying to buy as much as possible. More rural FWA would be a big selling point that might overcome any soft bandwidth cap slight overages. Especially since UScellular likely started offering it on c-band.
