Network Vision/LTE - Columbus Market

You may be out of range on the 800 as well. My experience is the the 800 is aimed above the near tower area to cover farther away. I live between 1-2 miles from the nearest site but rarely connect to it indoors, usually its the site 10 miles away. Of course it sometimes changes.

 

Brings back memories of when the company I worked for was on a 800 SMR. There was good and bad days on 800. Always subject to propagation, sunspots and the position of the moon. I could sometimes pick up Cincinnati Police on my handheld scanner in my living room in Whitehall stronger than Reynoldsburg Police on the same channel.

Just some speed tests at the Utica Elementary School. I was facing the tower and phone up in the air.

 

Interesting to note: when heading towards Newark on 13, once you make the first bend, before getting to the ice cream plant, the LTE connection drops. I'm sure the topography of the area has something to do with it.

Is that 1900 LTE?

Awesome speeds there. That's encouraging.

The thing is, Urticaria Elementary is located on a hill, and the tower can be seen. However, when driving on 13 through Utica, you don't always get LTE signal, even with the tower being only about a mile or less away.

Hello all,

 

Don't know if anyone was in the Johnstown area around 430pm today or around Granville around 10:30, but was anyone having issues with connecting to LTE?  I drove on 62 towards Utica and 16/161 out of Newark towards Columbus, and reset my data, hunting for LTE, and got nothing.  I did get LTE once I was already in Utica.

 

Just wanted to see if anyone had similar experiences or knows if perhaps the LTE connection was down.  I use GS3, in case anyone wants to know.

 

Thanks.

This site has had 2 sets of new cabinets for a while.

 

Just started using tapatalk and this is my first photo! How do I get to the spreadsheet message board?

I'm not sure what you mean... The spreadsheet link is in Coz' signature if that is what you are looking for.

They're installing RRUs at the High Street location in Lancaster. Talked to one of the guys. He's putting up 4 panels today and said this site would be up and running in 3-4 days. But I've been told that before only to be disappointed. But both main sites in Lancaster are getting RRUs.

 

I also asked the guy why there would be 4 cabinets at the other Lancaster site and he said they must be putting more than 4 panels up.

In the tapatalk app there were no links under the signature. I found it now with Coz's link.

Could be high capacity?

 

"Up and Running" is the problem.  From their standpoint, it most likely is up and running when it is complete on their side.  The problem is Sprint verifying its completion and then the cluster launch nature of NV.  I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but continue to be hesitant.  This tower will most likely not be live this week.  I'd love to be wrong though.

I'm just glad to see work. I'm in Lancaster quite a bit.

This may have been covered already and I just missed it, but does anyone know what the story is with the LTE that's showing up in Reynoldsburg, specifically in the Broad and Lancaster area?  (Oh and the Taylor Rd/Firstgate area too)  It's showing up on Sensorly, but I can't connect to it.  (on an EVO 4G LTE)  I kinda remember someone mentioning a while back that Reynoldsburg was getting 2500 Mhz first (or is it 2600 Mhz?  Whatever)  Is that the case?  Or is this just stuff that's in test mode?  I've been waiting since June 2012 for LTE in my area, and now it's showing up, but I can't use it.  I am about to explode with happiness and frustration!

Just confirmed. The 161 Cleveland Ave climbers are working on Sprint Antennas for 4gLTE. Talked to guy on ground and the crew is their to fix what wasn't done right. He said in about a week that part of the city will be all 4g. Come on Sprint..wit ur FunkyAzz!!!

    • Uploaded data without issues on Friday. Now with the latest update I am getting "Cluster #1 skipped: invalid file format detected. File exported for inspection." Doing same with all other clusters. Did this on 4 phones in a row.  Seems to work on s24 ultra just fine. On s21 ultra it says "web data upload failed. No data to send" although 8800 records were displayed. Now gives same error as above. I have not sent the data from 3 other phones.  All should have latest update.
    • After several months of testing, an update to SignalCheck Pro is rolling out on Google Play. It may take up to 48 hours to become available for download. Notable changes include: Added option to display site notes for NSA 5G-NR cells. Enabling this new option (Preferences > Display Settings > Show NSA 5G-NR Site Notes) will cause the app to make an "educated guess" as to what the most appropriate site note is linked to the connected NSA 5G cell, using the PCI and the device location. If it finds an existing entry that is likely to be relevant, it will display the note along with the distance from where the strongest signal from that cell was logged. While connected to NSA 5G, these notes cannot be edited; a valid NCI is required to add/edit notes and that information is not available on NSA connections.   Added option to log cells with missing/invalid PLMN (such as NSA 5G-NR cells). Users asked for the ability to log data for NSA 5G, so a new option (Preferences > Logger Settings > Log Cells with Missing PLMN) will permit this.   Added option to display LTE info above 5G-NR info. Enabling this new option (Preferences > Display Settings > Show LTE Cells Above 5G-NR Cells) shows the same information that is currently displayed, but moves the LTE information above the 5G-NR information. Other changes: Code optimizations and enhancements. Improved Android 15 compatibility. Overhauled Purchases module. Resolved force closes impacting some GSM/LTE connections. Resolved issue with improper 5G-NR PLMN display when NR/LTE PLMNs did not match. Resolved issue with improper PLMN display with single-digit MNCs. Resolved issue with incorrect 5G-NR bands displayed on some devices due to Android bug. Resolved issue with incorrect number of neighbor cells displayed when some cells were unknown. Resolved issue with missing 5G-NR data when sector display is enabled. Resolved issue with saving 5G-NR site notes when NR/LTE PLMNs did not match. Resolved issue with settings to log missing GCI/NCI/TAC/PLMN being ignored. Resolved issues with web data export function. Updated internal libraries. Updated provider database. Updated target API to Android 15. I appreciate all of your support, and a big thank you to the members of the Beta Crew that help with testing and feedback!
    • Oct security update is out.
    • Stopped by again today and the antennas are up but it isn't live just yet. If other Sprint conversions are anything to go by it'll likely take about a month for the site to go live.
    • It is an Android bug that was reportedly fixed in August 2023 but definitely has not been. I have implemented numerous workarounds in SCP to correct the NR bands the app displays. The OS ignores the possibility that many NR-ARFCNs are valid across multiple bands.. it reports the lowest NR band that is valid for the current ARFCN. In your example, channel 432530 can be n1, n65, or n66.. so the OS just (lazily) reports n1.   Awesome, thanks! I will add an n65 override also.
