Lte Marion.   How do I post a screen shot?

 

I'm pretty sure I know which site this is. Can you head over to the sponsor side so we can discuss this further?

Was doing some mapping trying to pick up some points off the Granville tower and eventually headed into Newark. Did a Sensorly speed test at the intersection of Route 16 and Cherry Valley. Headed east and lost signal within a quarter mile. Then, in Heath, picked this up. Not sure if this was a LONG Granville hit, or was from another tower. It lasted only briefly and then was gone.

 

If I'm complicating things as a noob, tell me to STFU. :-)

Need your Serving Cell from the LTE Engineering screen within your Note 2. Just guessing, it's from Granville.

lol. Well you very clearly beat me to it..

 

I did do sensorly though. So that's there.

 

Speed test came back with about 12 mb

From personal experience, the first few days of a tower getting LTE may have be capped at 15Mbps. YMMV.

Did some tower searching. Found the site at 921 Holtmann (1999 East Rich) has base cabinets and RRHs. The site at 926 East Broad I will debate and say the address is wrong. I believe the Sprint equipment is at East Broad & Woodland Ave on top of Park Towers condos. Could not confirm or deny anything other than I could not see any antenni on sleds @ 926 and a mess of antenni on the other building. Found the site at 3540 East Main has the antenni mounted tight to a power pole, so this may be a full build GMO. There was a nasty wreck there so I didn't get to see the base cabinets.

I'm just seeing red dots on the map. I refreshed the page and it still looks that way. Not sure what's going on.

Gotta wait 15 mins before you try.

I've been reading this thread for months and today I can contribute. I live in Baltimore, Ohio, in town, and we've had 4G LTE all day today.

A few pages back digiblur posted instructions on how to untruncate the Cell ID. Can you update that and grab screenshots once more please.

Sorry to be a pain, but can you attempt to get a better LTE signal and grab the 3 serving cells around that site? To confirm that LTE is coming from that site it helps if the signal is better than -90dBm. Just want to make it isn't the site off 309.

We don't have 4g on the tower by 309 yet. I also got an email from my indirect account executive showing a confirmation in glance that its the barks rd tower and if you look at my screen shot of signalcheck pro it shows barks rd as the tower.

There is a site near 309 and 61. I understand that's a good amount away from you, but depending on terrain, LTE is known to work at that distance for hits. The BSL you see in SignalCheck Pro is for your 1x connection. There is no way at this time to get the BSL from LTE.

Awesome, I can't believe those 3 towers have LTE, located.... Shell out some $$ guys, help keep the lights on.

    • Your referring to the $25.00 a month Infinite Unlimited plan?  I don't see any other plans on there even cheaper than that on their website.  I was looking at the Motorola 2023 Edge fwiw as well for $10.00 a month. 
    • 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.
