3gNV sites

 

1) Video avenue rooftop (in front of Centro Medico, easy access)

2) Cerro las mesas (Bella Vista) after you pass the hospital and 7th day adventist church, is on the left of the road. (Easier to spot and to shoot pic)

3) I think we can see it from viaducto, is in the rooftop next to formerly stereo gema.

4) Downtown (around howard johnson hotel). Dont know exactly location, is on one of the rooftop around that area.

5) Mayaguez Terrace traffic light, its on the rooftop of one of the buildings closer to nestle.

6) In front of the "Vertedero", (probably easy to take pics)

7) The last one is on the Zoo road and PR 351 road, never been around that area so dont know how easy is to spot it.

 

Happy hunting!!

 

There are a couple of antennas on the video avenue and pampas buildings... Tell me if those are ours...

Spotted some LTE love in San Juan by the ferry terminal. Mapping it as I type. Saw it a bit late as I was getting aboard the ferry itself. Got distracted finding portals in Ingress.

 

I work at old San Juan and have not seen this. Will check it out tomorrow.

here at work and no LTE sittings yet... the 3G is bad as always. But I did notice that they removed the construction sign for the site thats located at the top of the Marshalls building in Old San Juan. Hopefully they turn it up and I can have LTE at work :D

I noticed that my Galaxy S3 is not longer detecting the LTE signal in Cabo Rojo. I was yesterday at the Wendy's close to Road #100 and I was on 3G while my stepson Iphone 5 was running on LTE. Any idea? Could be a hardware issue on my S3? Is there any application on the android market to test the LTE antenna?

I think that we could do onsite feedback to the forum in the mayaguez area so we can get a better idea of whats going on in "la sultana del oeste" without giving more work to Robert, we have some mayaguez or close towns members, we can do some NV antenna hunting.

 

Im gonna list the seven antenna locations so if you have a camera with a decent zoom, snap a pic and post it here so we can determine if it have NV equipment.

 

1) Video avenue rooftop (in front of Centro Medico, easy access)

2) Cerro las mesas (Bella Vista) after you pass the hospital and 7th day adventist church, is on the left of the road. (Easier to spot and to shoot pic)

3) I think we can see it from viaducto, is in the rooftop next to formerly stereo gema.

4) Downtown (around howard johnson hotel). Dont know exactly location, is on one of the rooftop around that area.

5) Mayaguez Terrace traffic light, its on the rooftop of one of the buildings closer to nestle.

6) In front of the "Vertedero", (probably easy to take pics)

7) The last one is on the Zoo road and PR 351 road, never been around that area so dont know how easy is to spot it.

Here is the Cerro Las Mesas antenna. Kind of blurry because the height of the structure, it a beautiful but tall antenna.

Do you toggle airplane mode? My GS3 pickup LTE faster when I toggle airplane mode on/off.

Thanks Toyrunner and Kaku, seems like almost all sites have NV equipment, I have my doubt on Video Avenue one, in the Vertedero site, looks like the Sprint panels could be the lower set in the first pic. So probably in some time Mayaguez should be up, it could be matter of backhaul.

For those that are impatient, toggling airplane mode brings up LTE faster. However, the phone will connect on it's own once it scans for LTE, which can be any amount of time up to a half hour, but usually faster.

Didn't intend to imply that you were! I tend to push the airplane button when I'm around LTE, so I'm guilty of it too ^_^

 

U got me... I am impatient.... But willing to wait "patiently"!!!!

This behavior is really anoying, I did the toggle trick with my GNex to connect to LTE. But now my Note 2 connected almost instantly to LTE went It detect the signal.

    • Has anyone checked Verizon n77 in areas with more than 100MHZ active? This spectrum has been fully available since August of last year.  Of course they are not typically using SA.
    • I updated my other s21 ultra factory unlocked to the latest firmware... It behaves like the S24 Ultra n38 or n41 depending on 80 or 100MHz or their nr- arfcn.
    • I see everything correct. The two ARFCN's you mentioned earlier and they idenitify as n-41.  using 4.832b SCP. Only using one TM SIM.
    • I posted this in the Nebraska Premier thread last week, but just wanted to share in this thread the progress that T-Mobile has made in filling in the great coverage gap known as Nebraska. Between late last year and this year, they have added 28 new expansion sites filling in the coverage hole, plus 11 Sprint site conversions in eastern Nebraska and far western Iowa. Notably, in the last month n41 coverage was added on over a dozen expansion sites in western Nebraska that were added to the network last year. For comparison, here is the very first map that I created in October of 2022 after we noted expansion sites outside of Sprint conversion in Lincoln and Omaha. It doesn't show any western parts of the state, but just know there was nothing besides roaming coverage and a little B12 coverage leaking down from South Dakota to the west of Valentine, NE.
    • Sent a copy of my DB in an e-mail just now.  Couldn't leave the house today but can hopefully get a screenshot when I'm out on another cell site tomorrow.
