Okay, here are almost all of the screens available on the iPhone 5's Field Test function. All of these were taken at one time just at the foot of the Trophy Club, TX water tower, right behind Sabre HQ off of TX-114.

 

IMO, this is a strange location for a tower, as Sprint also has a 300 ft tower less than 2000 ft away. My assumption is that this one is designed to serve Westlake's Solana complex just across 114 -- but I can say that I can't get LTE over there.

 

I ran SpeedTest, RootMetrics and Sensorly -- quite a variation, but all were fast:

 

Test Date: Sep 24, 2012 1:58 PM

Connection Type: Cellular

Server: Fort Worth, TX

Download: 8.31 Mbps

Upload: 8.91 Mbps

Ping: 177 ms

 

External IP: 66.87.97.6

Internal IP: 30.120.181.6

Latitude: 32.9863

Longitude: -97.1672

 

(The field test images will follow later in this thread).

It's hard to believe that performing one speed test on Sensorly used 45 MB of data.

Is that another iphone thing as other screen shots and such look fine?

No, I composed on a PC. It's probably the hosting service (imageshack)

and resolution I selected.

As an S4GRU research request, I need several iPhone 5 users in Sprint LTE coverage to post screen caps of the following Field Test screen:

Tracking Area Code must be visible in the screen cap.

 

Then, at the same time and location, do likewise for CDMA1X with SID and NID visible in the screen cap.

 

Any takers?

Easy peasy. Any hints at what you're looking for?

      Sprint Super Bowl Coverage/DAS

      By RedSpark · Posted

      February is always closer than you think! https://stadiumtechreport.com/news/caesars-superdome-gets-matsing-deployment-ahead-of-super-bowl-lix/ Another Super Bowl, another MatSing cellular antenna deployment. Caesars Superdome, home of the NFL’s New Orleans Saints, has deployed a large number of cellular antennas from MatSing as part of an effort to increase wireless network capacity ahead of the upcoming Super Bowl LIX in February, 2025. It is the third such deployment of MatSing equipment at Super Bowl venues in as many years, following cellular upgrades at Allegiant Stadium for Super Bowl LVIII and at State Farm Stadium for Super Bowl LVII. According to the Saints, the MatSing antennas were part of a large wireless overhaul this offseason, done primarily “to satisfy fans’ desires for wireless consumption and bandwidth,” an important thing with Super Bowl LIX coming to the venue on Feb. 9, 2025. Each year, the NFL’s big game regularly sets records for wireless data consumption, with a steady upward progression ever since wireless networks were first put into stadiums. https://www.neworleanssaints.com/news/caesars-superdome-transformation-2024-new-orleans-saints-nfl-season-part-1-wifi-upgrades-wireless-cellular During the offseason renovation project, the foundation of the facility's new Distributed Antenna System (DAS) was the installation of 16 multi-beam, wideband spherical lense antennas that are seven feet in diameter and weigh nearly 600 pounds apiece, a model called the MatSing MS-48H180. Another 16 large antenna spheres of varying sizes and frequencies have also been installed for a total of 32 new large antennas, in addition to 200 cellular antennas inside and around the building, all of these products specifically made for high-density environments such as stadiums and arenas. The DAS system's performance is expected to enhance further as it becomes fully integrated throughout the season. The MatSing MS-48H180 devices, with a black color that matches the Caesars Superdome's roof, each were individually raised by hoist machines to the top of the facility and bolted into place. Each cellular antenna then transmits 48 different beams and signals to a specific area in the stadium, with each sphere angled differently to specifically target different coverage areas, allowing increased, consistent coverage for high-density seating areas. In addition to creating targets in seating and common areas throughout the stadium, these antennas create dedicated floor zones that result in improved coverage to the field areas for fans in 12 field-level suites and the Mercedes-Benz End Zone Club, teams and on-field media and broadcast elements. The project is also adding 2,500 new wireless access points placed in areas such as concourses, atriums, suites and food and beverage areas for better WiFi coverage.

      FCC: "We remain committed to helping with recovery efforts in states affected by Hurricane Helene. We stand ready to do all that is necessary to return connectivity to hard-hit areas and save lives." SpaceX: "SpaceX and @TMobile have been given emergency special temporary authority by the @FCC to enable @Starlink satellites with direct-to-cell capability to provide coverage for cell phones in the affected areas of Hurricane Helene. The satellites have already been enabled and started broadcasting emergency alerts to cell phones on all networks in North Carolina. In addition, we may test basic texting (SMS) capabilities for most cell phones on the T-Mobile network in North Carolina. SpaceX’s direct-to-cell constellation has not been fully deployed, so all services will be delivered on a best-effort basis." Space posted this at 2pm today on X.
