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

Painfully slow connection on my EVO LTE - less, took forever to post pics. Tests were done by my wife's Note 2.

Keep in mind you are on the brink of usable service @ 110dB... Anything at or higher than that should be thought of as gravy...

Looks to be a delay in Westerville and Newark work. Looks to be weather related.

Worthington Area 270 and 23

Hmm... Looks like it may be the tower North of you on 23.  However, it is quite a bit away.

 

If it is that tower, it just went live today.  Maybe during your lunch break you can drive north on 23 to get a better look?

 

Thanks.

 

iPhone 5 says frequency Band 25 if that means anything

That means it is LTE1900, which makes sense.

Where would that tower be exactly?

I cannot tell you exactly, but let's say it is extremely close to Nissan North.  A small donation and you would have access to exactly where this and all the other towers are.

 

Thanks again!

Bustin' a gut. Break out the old divining rod. It could be Busch, don't know if they're back up. dkyeager was picking them up on 270, I'd have to look at his post in the premiere thread to see his sprite map to know the signal level.

Guys, I have a question.

 

Album - http://imgur.com/a/I56Iu

 

The first 2 pics are of the tower where crew worked on about 3 months ago. Is that a sprint tower?

 

Rest of the pics are of a tower where crews are working on right now. Is this a sprint tower?

 

Walcutt Rd sure is Sprint.

 

Rest of pics looks like Verizon.  Is that the new tower near Roberts Rd on 270?

Hello all,

Can somebody tell me if they are working on any towers between Canal and Circleville. I'm just south of Canal (south of Slate Run a bit) but I am always connected to the tower off of State Route 752. I see all the updates everywhere except this area looks like a dead zone. On sprints maps at least.

Thanks

I drove through Duvall and several roads south of Rickenbacker the other day. Signal is pretty dead all through there, even with the upgraded towers to the east and around Rickenbacker. It has a lot to do with terrain down there. The site on 752 that you speak of, this is the one near South Bloomfield? I'll even take a guess that the sites near Rickenbacker are aimed away from the airport since I was at the south end of the runway and had nothing really usable.

Yes it is pretty dead. Here are a couple of screen shots if this helps. I'm usually on the yellow circle tower but for some reason have been on the purple one with the line. Hope this helps

I'm having a hard time understanding the map / scale... Looking at the sponsor side of things were all towers are located it doesn't appear to be located where the yellow dot is.  How do you know for sure that the tower you are connecting to is the yellow / purple dot?  I'm sorry, just not familiar with iOS.

      Kind of amazing that T-Mobile is still holding onto that speed title despite Verizon all but killing off lowband 5G on their network. While Verizon is mostly being evaluated on mmWave and C-band performance, T-Mobile and AT&T's average 5G speeds include their massive lowband 5G networks that are significantly slower.

      Yup. Very true. We were originally on an Everything Data 1500 Plan, which got Unlimited Minutes thanks to Marcelo's "Loyalty Benefits" offer. We then switched to Unlimited Freedom (with the Free HD add-on that Sprint originally wanted $20/month per line for.... remember that?) because the pricing was better with "iPhone for Life", vs. the "Loyalty Credit" for staying on a Legacy Plan. After that, I ran the numbers and switched us over to Sprint MAX, especially for the international travel benefits. There's absolutely no reason for us to switch to Go5G Plus or Go5G Next if we're going to do BYOD by purchasing from Apple/Samsung/Google directly as we've been doing. These new plans aren't priced for current customers to switch to. They're priced for new customers, where they throw in a free line, etc. It's gone from "Uncarrier" to "Carrier". What a shame.

      Strange business model that they keep around all these pricing plans. 1000s of plans per carrier is reportedly not uncommon.  Training customer support must be a nightmare. Even MVNOs have legacy plans. A downside of their contract mentality I guess. Best to change contracts during a recession. But then all carriers try to squeeze out legacy plan benefits as they grow old.

      Everything "Uncarrier" is becoming "Carrier" again. Because of the Credit Limit that T-Mobile put on our account for no reason at all (and wouldn't change/update the last time I checked all the way up to the CEO), I don't plan on buying/upgrading our iPhones through T-Mobile. I'm going through Apple directly. Looks like I'll be going through Google and Samsung directly for our other lines for upgrades. Also, we're staying on Sprint Max given the ridiculous pricing for Go5G Plus. On Sprint Max, we currently pay for our Plan: $260 for 7 Voice Lines $25 for two Wearable Lines. (One is $10/Month. The other is $15/Month because the AutoPay discount only applies up to 8 lines.) Total: $285/Month vs. Go5G Plus (Per the Broadband Facts "nutrition label" on the T-Mobile Website): https://www.t-mobile.com/commerce/cell-phone-plans $360 - ($5 AutoPay Discount x 7 Voice Lines) = $325 The Watch Plans show as either $12/Month or $15/Month: https://www.t-mobile.com/cell-phone-plans/affordable-data-plans/smartwatches So this is about the same for the wearables as what we're paying now. Overall, it's quite more than we're paying now to switch plans. Ridiculous....
