Finally! Some LTE in Mansfield! Would this be part of the Columbus market? I know about 100 pages ago someone was mentioning mansfield, over the summer.

Mansfield is part of Columbus market. Looking at Sensorly, there may be two sites active there now that don't show on the sponsor map yet.

Part of Mansfield is also in the Cleveland market or Toledo market, so I can't say for sure which "purple" you're referring to.

 

I can head out there tomorrow, but I have an iPhone. Will that give enough information to track the locations down?

 

I know how to access the field test screen.

iPhones provide great information, they just can't map. Check the instructions in my signature on what information we actually need.

For those interested, the construction meeting went well. Bids are still being accepted from GCs at the moment, but they want to start soon, very soon.

Alright folks. Now that 2014 is here, we should see completion of LTE 1900 in the coming months with a robust 3G/1x800 network as well as see LTE800 start to light up towards the middle-to-end of the

I was having some hand off issues and multiple text messages issues near downtown this afternoon. I wonder what they're up to? On 3G

Downtown was awful today. I was at mongolian bbq during lunch time and I was roaming by nationwide arena and had no data on my walk back to broad Street from there

Hello and :welcome:  to S4GRU.

 

As with any online forum, it's considered rude to enter a thread asking "when questions" without attempting a search. There is already LTE in the area. Your iPhone 5s may or may not be able to access what's in the area.

 

We don't have information at this time on when Columbus will be complete, but progress is being made. Additional information is available through S4GRU.com but does require being a sponsored member of the site.

 

If there are any additional questions you have, we'll be more than willing to assist, but please attempt to browse through this thread to locate many of the commonly questions asked.

 

Once again, welcome to S4GRU.com. We hope you enjoy your stay.

What was was the conclusion of above link ? It looks like a diary from Gilligan's Island

 

Main thing is the FCC is going to strictly regulate how future spectrum auctions are going to be handled. They're not going to let the duopoly kill T-Mo and Sprint.

that's what I got out of it! As long as big brother regulates little and from afar I'm OK with it

I was able to get some screen shots yesterday, I'll upload them when I'm done at work. When I access the serving cell info, I scrolled down to see cell identity but it doesn't show the full number, only the first 7 numbers. Will this still help? Physical cell id was so short there's no problem seeing it.

Here's what I was able to get, and the example of the cell ID being cut off. Looks like it's just one digit short, from the example provided from the tutorial thread posted above.

Need the full Cell Identity. Need to adjust the Bold Text option under your accessibility settings.

Thanks for the tip. Totally forgot I changed that. I tried to scroll the box like you can under the PCS menu but it didn't work. I'll post updated screenshots the next time I head to Mansfield.

What's the nearest crossing road to where you were? If it's directly in Mansfield, then it's for the Cleveland market. The closest LTE site for Columbus is in Gallion.

I'm not for certain if the tower at the fairgrounds closest to 71 is a Sprint tower, but there have been two workers working up there the past few days.

 

Middle Rack is Clearwire. If Sprint is on that tower, it would be the Bottom Rack.

Pardon my ignorance - what is Google Hangouts all about? 

 

I may have an iOS device now, but I was a big Android guy before.  HTC Hero, and EVO 4G (still alive in my garage as my security camera. Volume buttons died and wife bought me a iPhone 5 to replace.)

Formally Google Talk. It's available on iOS7 if you want to get in. Instead of racking up a bunch of post on random discussion and/or whatever we choose to talk about. Also a place to have live discussions instead of reading post all days.

      T-Mobile to acquire UScellular

      By Dkoellerwx · Posted

      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 to acquire UScellular

      By dkyeager · Posted

      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.
