I believe the Columbus market (central Ohio) is 79% complete on LTE. They're slowly getting LTE turned on at the latest NV converted sites. Coverage isn't that dense. We're hoping that the 800 LTE and NV 2.5 LTE will help decrease dead spots.

 

What area are you lurking in?

This can't be good. Dispatch reporting there's a fire at Grandview HS cell tower. Hopefully everyone is OK and progress doesn't slow attachicon.gifScreenshot_2014-07-15-11-37-04.png

 

Not a laughing matter but the jokes are hilarious. Here is Sprint Spark. If it's a slow news day then they'll talk about it a little more than what anyone could make out of it.

COz or anyone...

 

Any idea when Sprint will start with adding 800 LTE in Ohio ?

There are numerous sites transmitting B26 in Ohio. More info can be found in the Premier section of the forum, including a B26 acceptance map.

I forget, 800 lte is just carrier card? It could already be installed, needs installed or needs turned on?

 

yes, yes, yes, yes.

Hopefully it spreads like wildfire!

 

<_< Already lost one tower to fire.  Time for a new analogy.

 

 

Let's see.....

 

We already have Sprint B41 popping up like mushrooms. :banana:

 

Maybe, B26 LTE 800 should cover us like a heavy snow (which would even quiet may Sprint critics -- for those further south, snow makes it very quiet) :cool:

Good bye old Sprint

Old cabinets are removed from an apartment rooftop in Northwest Columbus. We only have a few sites left to be upgraded to Network Vision. LTE is still being turned on at many sites, but that is done a few sites at a time and then tuned.

    • 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.
