I think it will manage. ;) The Columbus Map has been updated if you need to check status as you go along.

So I don't have a 5S, it's just a 5. But anyways here are the pics for that site. I don't think there are any changes and I saw no evidence of digging or back haul around the tower. Just to confirm, this is the tower right behind the car wash, right?Posted ImagePosted Image

That's the one. Disappointing, that truck gave me some hope. Ah well, thanks for checking it out.

Sprint could move a lot faster. Being on the border of Moto Samsung valley really super sucks! I made the mistake of sending a text message in that in between area. Never got any texts back until after I got home on the airave miles inside Samsung land. Keep getting those text responses every 61 minutes, every one of them. Can't send any texts either while on the airave. Absolutely absurd. Every weekend this happens. Sorry about the rant, I was at least nice!!!!

One of the few names I get excited with my alerts...

Agree sir, beyond ridiculous and ready to ditch the airave....

Last night high up in the stands at Dublin Coffman High School stadium I had the 4G lit up most of the game.

I think one of the light towers is: Site ID: CBBLAH1234, not sure if that was where it was coming from since I was100 feet in the air and could see 20+ towers around the horizon.

The download speed as only 5. Mbps.

Check your serving cell next time and you will know.

Couple things, I'm pretty certain the posting of site ID's in the non-sponsor forum is a no-no, just a very friendly reminder. I'm always double checking which side of the board I'm in before I post a site ID. Digiblur already mentioned checking the serving cell (or PN, depending on iPhone or Android) value in the LTE engineering screen. If you've not connected to any other LTE sites, you may be able to see that serving cell value still in memory, I have been able to do that before. I'm going to guess you picked up either the Morse Rd site or the site at 71/37. You can check that on the spreadsheet here:

COZ must be deeply entrenched in some football, haven't seem him all morning.

Hey guys, so I have sort of a newb question.

 

I use the Sprint network, but through Credo Mobile, and am up for a device upgrade.  

 

I keep reading all of this stuff about how Sprint is rolling out new service in a number of spectrums, and I am wondering, is there a way to figure out whether my potential current-line Credo HTC One or Galaxy S4 will be able to access any of them?  

It'd suck to commit to a device for two years, just to have Sprint roll out a bunch of stuff I can't use over that time.

The both of those devices will only support LTE 1900. Devices coming out in the near future will support Sprint's LTE 1900/800/2600 bands.

Anyone map around OSU especially when there is a football game? Everytime I have been there have had almost no service even including text only.

That's to be expected when you dump 100,000 people into a small geographic area. It's like Red White and Boom. Each cell can handle so much capacity. The idea here would be once 800 is live that without adding cells, more users would connect to another few rings of cells around a short term high density load. I can connect to 800 sites 20 miles away with ease so once NV rolls out completely, short term high capacity issues may go away.

The 1xAdvanced on the PCS band will increase capacity too but that's only going to help voice for the most part unless they use and convert voice carriers to data carriers as it is intended.

You'll still run into the capacity issue with 1x800. If their phone still prefers 1900 over 800, you will still have voice capacity issues unless a C.O.W. is dispatched during events. You also have to account for the 100,000 at the shoe as well as students still on campus. Now in terms of 3G/4G data. It all depends on how many people update to Dual/Tri - Band handsets as well as how priority is going to be handled on those devices (which we currently don't know). Only one can hope things will become at least manageable with NV updates.

Stay out of my market answering questions. I'm trying to sound smart around here! :lol:

Just had the dreaded no call come through, but then a voicemail show up. Wasn't a good time either since it was an interview call about a promotion. Thankfully I called the recruiter back and I'm hopefully up for a second interview. But still, not a call I wanted to miss.

Trust me, I understand that. Good luck with it. I know how things are going over in your building.

My job is okay right now, this was just a tip from a former boss for a job that she thought I'd be good at. But thanks anyway, lot of friends are getting laid off right now.

I am getting 800 down in Washington Court House. I am sure it is one of the towers down here. I don't know which one though because even though my phone says 1x 800, I'm not getting data. It really SUCKS because Quailcomm runs off of Sprint's towers now. So now my drivers aren't getting information that they are supposed to be getting. I'm hoping this is only VERY SHORT term.

Sorry for the dumb question, but have you tried hitting Reset Data Connection? I know if I'm running a 1x800 PRL that I have to hit Reset every once and a while.

I had three of those no ring/voicemail calls today. Pretty annoying.

    • 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.
