Would you recommend Sprint right now..to any of your friends and family? I was just ask how I like my service with Sprint, from a friend. They would be switching from VZW. I've been with Sprint for a long time and I can honestly say that I'm so glad I never switched. Even when I wanted too put some holes in my phone and bury it in the woods

I would recommend in my area and in columbus where I work and play... Let me try and if doesn't work for them with the savings, switch back!

 

Service is getting better each and every day in the Columbus market and still not fully rolled out...

Just drove past the E Broad and Lancaster Ave tower. The crews are out, about 6 guys. The hardware been sitting on the ground since last week. The panels seem prewired and ready to be attached. The top of the tower appears to have new mounting hardware needed for additional panels.

Update: Just drove by the E Broad/Lancaster tower. The panels are installed, however no LTE signal picked up. There are some crates on the ground, don't know if they're empty or not. No crews, yet, might not be any due to upcoming weather.

Did a Speedtest today using ATT's website Speedtest (Ookla provided software).  My tower is on Basil-Western Road (across from Kingy's Pizza (near the S.R. 33 and Hill-Diley Road Exit). 2 Miles from the Tower.

The tower, hahaha. It seems that the work there has stopped. A few boxes are on the ground and the base of the tower, where cables run through, is exposed. I think they're on the break.

 

P.S. talking about E. Broad - Lancaster Ave tower.

That is 00F07Exx converting your cell ID to hex. That is a Clear band 41 site for two reasons, one I looked the site up and the other is 00F---xx sites in our market are Clear band 41 sites. Not the power tower unfortunately.

 

Regarding the power tower, still no LTE? Can someone who lives near there grab some new pics? Something where we can count the RRH's?

Typical time to upgrade a power tower site by aep contractors according to regular sprint contractors: five weeks.

It seems that the tower is almost done, just wiring needs to be installed. The same contractors who were 3G upgrade on it, were out there, General Dynamcs.

I could grab pictures tonight but it'll likely be dark when I get back. Dark when I leave, and dark when I get back. I hate winter.
