By my count, the Network Vision Site Acceptance Report Updates page on this site list 7 accepted LTE towers in Cincinnati, but I only see 6 on Sensorly's coverage map. Does anybody know where the 7th tower is?

Sensorly is showing that I am reporting 4g at my address and while I do occasionally see eHRPD signal, I have never seen any 4G. I will say that along 747 just north of 275 and Tricounty it is ROCKIN!

if you still have the epic 4g touch that is a wimax phone you wouldn't be able to use lte with it

Has anyone else been experiencing issues with the tower servicing the east side of Downtown Cincinnati near 5th St?  It frequently becomes completely non-functional, often for days at a time.  I am then shunted off to roaming.  If I disable roaming, I get no service.  The tower details from my engineering screen: SID: 4390, NID: 70, Base ID: 1521.  I called and reported it (again) and now it's going on and back off again.  Anyone have any experience like this?

Got a picture of what I believe is the LTE tower serving West Chester and Sharonville. Taken from 275 E

 

I'm starting to think that one isn't a Sprint tower. I was just at Dave and Buster's on Saturday which is only about a quarter mile from there, and I basically got zero reception inside. I don't get must inside Tri-County mall either, which is about the same distance in the other direction.

I actually got 4G for about 5 minutes on Monday night in Fairfield twp around 6pm. My cell signal is so bad that Sprint sent me an AirRave. I got that connected tonight and no more missed calls for now.

If your phone is set up for automatic mapping, it's going to be difficult to locate LTE. When Sensorly is running it's constantly sending/receiving data. When you're phone is in an active data session it doesn't look for LTE. It's like phone calls before call waiting was invented. Gotta hang up before you know your HS crush is calling.

 

LTE Discovery app w/upgrade fixes this issue as it Resets your connection constantly when not connected to LTE.

 

Today's post has been brought to you by Sprint, the letters GN and the number 2.

Chip in some beer money to keep the lights on in this place and you'll have direct access to the information.

I have been roaming quite a bit last several weeks right in the middle of downtown

    • Good catch! I meant 115932/119932. Edited my original post I've noticed the same thing lately and have just assumed that they're skipping it now because they're finally able to deploy mmWave small cells.
    • At some point over the weekend, T-Mobile bumped the Omaha metro from 100+40 to 100+90 of n41! That's a pretty large increase from what we had just a few weeks ago when we were sitting at 80+40Mhz. Out of curiosity, tested a site on my way to work and pulled 1.4Gpbs. That's the fastest I've ever gotten on T-Mobile! For those that know Omaha, this was on Dodge street in Midtown so not exactly a quiet area!
    • Did you mean a different site? eNB ID 112039 has been around for years. Streetview even has it with C-band back in 2022 - https://www.google.com/maps/@40.7303042,-73.9610924,3a,24.1y,18.03h,109.66t/data=!3m8!1e1!3m6!1s2ossx06yU56AYOzREdcK-g!2e0!5s20220201T000000!6shttps:%2F%2Fstreetviewpixels-pa.googleapis.com%2Fv1%2Fthumbnail%3Fpanoid%3D2ossx06yU56AYOzREdcK-g%26cb_client%3Dmaps_sv.share%26w%3D900%26h%3D600%26yaw%3D18.027734930682684%26pitch%3D-19.664180274382204%26thumbfov%3D90!7i16384!8i8192?coh=205410&entry=ttu Meanwhile, Verizon's eNB 84484 in Fort Greene has been updated to include C-band and CBRS, but not mmWave. I've seen this a few times now on updated Verizon sites where it's just the CBRS antenna on its own, not in a shroud and without mmWave. Odd.
    • Drove out into the country today.  Dish stuck to my phone like glue. At least -120 rsrp. Likely only good for phone calls (should have tested.) It then switched to T-Mobile. Getting back on Dish was another issue. I am used to dragging out coverage so I expected a few miles, but had to drive at least 10 miles towards a Dish site. Airplane mode, which worked for Sprint, did nothing. Rebooting did nothing. Finally got it to change over about 2 miles from the site by manually setting the carrier to Dish then it had great reception. Sprint used to have a 15 minute timeout but I did not have the patience today.  Previously I did a speed test on Dish out in the country at the edge of Dish coverage. My speeds were 2g variety. Dish has really overclocked some of these sites. Seen rssp readings in the 50s. Would have called them boomer sites with Sprint but much  more common with Dish.
