The paddock ave site behind the church is not a sprint tower..although the one on top of the hotel next to I91 on east main st. Is.

651 paddock ave. is listed as a Clearwire cell site:

EM-CLEARWIRE-080-091015 – Clearwire Corporation notice of intent to modify an existing telecommunications facility located at 651 Paddock Avenue, Meriden, Connecticut.

 

T-Mobile & Verizon also have work orders on it too! I could always be wrong though.

I cant tell honestly with the quality of those pictures.  Doesnt look like it to me though.

 

 

What about the s.broad st tower??..the one of the smoke stack...did a speed test today while at big y and got 26mbps download almost 7mbps upload with 57 ms ping...and tech support mentioned either that tower or a tower in wallingford is undergoing a 2.5ghz LTE upgrade. I can upload the picture or i can upload some ithe pictures of towers once i can get some shots of em.

The northern hartford one getting work in the picture isnt getting 8T8R, I stopped by it a few days ago when I saw them working.  Slater St in manchester might be an 8T8R, I stress might.  I actually will be in the neighborhood there tomorrow for other business, ill bring my camera.  You might of found one!

thats funny...i went to home town buffet for lunch with a friend and didnt even know if it was a sprint tower, took shots anyway and looked at my"special map" and sure enough it was..and when i was looking at the map saw that the northern end of weston st wasnt i figured i would put it up anyway...but my search doesnt stop there as i will be getting more shots of other towers in my area and random ones in my travels...stay tuned!!

I tried to catch Adams St today in my travels, but I was just out of time and couldnt swing over that way.

 

Do you have a better camera?  Even a hand held digital might get you better zoom shots than a cell phone.  Clarity is key.

Saw some guys working on the Sprint rack in East Windsor near Hotcakes on Route 5.  Definitely not doing 8T8R, but maybe finally fixing whatever is wrong on that site so the gap in LTE can be filled.  I had LTE from the mass line down to East Hartford on Route 5 today, except the area served by that one tower.

    • 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.
    • 76MB Google Play System update after that, bringing the date up to 3/1 from prior 2/1 date. 
    • April security patch is already out - 738.30 MB download. 
    • What do you see with the latest alpha/ beta version?
