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!

    • 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....
    • Welcome back! That's similar to my best (1250ish). A few people have broken 2000 on good sites. 
    • Lots of new multi-carrier nodes popping up in Bushwick. Crown Castle Fiber node at Ridgewood & Palmetto:   Crown Castle Solutions node at Irving & Jefferson:   Crown Castle Solutions node at Wilson & Noll:  
    • I’m surprised they’re running a 5x5 Band 66 carrier still. In NYC T-Mobile has 25x25 AWS and they’re running 20x20 Band 66 and 5x5 n66 (in testing). Presumably when n66 commercially launches they’ll drop Band 66 down to 15x15 and go straight for a 10x10 n66 carrier like they did with n25. 
    • Austin has now narrowed B2 to 15x15 to support a second 10x10 n25 channel, this time entirely in PCS A-F. So T-Mobile now has 35x35 FD (n71 + n25) and 180 MHz TD (n41) NR live here, and LTE single carrier bandwidth now tops out at 15x15. LTE is down to 5x5 B12, 15x15 B2, 10x10+10x10+5x5 B66, so they now have 5 carriers each of LTE and NR, with 45x45 total LTE.
