So I was walking to my car when I noticed people working on something so I snagged a picture. As this is a sprint site.. first thing i thought was "hell yes network vision!!" then I remembered we're not to start till next year... fml... bandaid fix I suppose.

 

Here ye go. Should be easy to identify the panels (especially the one that looks "newer" than the others).

 

@Sacramento City College if you're wondering...

This is a privately owned and operated site that talks about sprint's network vision roll out but please don't say this is a sprint site.

I think he meant that is a Sprint cell site. ;)

One issue though... The network maintenance to add voice or data bandwidth doesn't require work to be done to the panels.

Yes. It may not be a normal maintenance issue, but rather a repair issue.

Actually, that looks like a Clearwire WiMax panel they are working on (too wide for Sprint). It looks like the Sprint PCS panels are the ones on the very top rim, or the bottom left.

It's actually not a small lot..... There's 5 rows, ~50 cars per, bumper - bumper, in that part alone. There's more additional staff parking in their own little lots. Students, like me, get a 5 level garage + another huge parking lot. Good thing about the parking garage though. The 5th level is directly across from all the antennas on the water tower.

I couldn't resist, much like how now I want to make a comment on this lot being a grower vs. a shower....  maybe I should lay off the booze for a few.  

 

I actually Google searched the lot before commenting, but couldn't help myself on the photo presented.

      Official Tmobile-Sprint merger discussion thread

      By iansltx · Posted

      Looks like another T-Mobile 5G bump happened over the past week and a half, maybe less: n41 carriers are now 90+100 MHz, up from 80+100 (which in turn is up from 40+100 back in early March). This is on top of the new n25 carrier recently. As part of this, it looks like T-Mobile is starting to prefer n25+n41 2CA even when pushing data, rather than having higher levels of CA that would hit higher peak speeds; at least indoors I need to force n41-only if I want to see the full 190 MHz there. To be fair the speeds are plenty quick with that amount of spectrum, and I'm sure they're load balancing, and my guess is this is a little better for battery life? With this expansion, they're now at 10x10+10x10 n25, 15x15 n71, 100+90 n41, for a total of 260 MHz (including FD uplink) of deployed NR here, up from 250 MHz a week ago, 230 MHz two weeks ago, and 190 MHz six months ago. VZW is at 140 MHz minus mmW, 170 if you count n2 DSS. AT&T is at 150 MHz (80+40 n77, 15x15 n5), 210 MHz I think if you count n2 and n66 DSS (guessing they're still running those). With this level of spectrum they should be able to continue offering home internet wherever. Guessing this is the last upgrade they can make before they need to throw new equipment on sites for C-Band. At this rate I figure that'll happen next year on a few dozen high-traffic sites.

      My wife has a Pixel 8 Pro and has no complaints. I have an S22U and I get slightly better signal than her but 99.9% of the time, its not noticeable.

      My favorite is the nexus 6.  Love the form factor also.

      Well it's the newest Pixel, so I'm guessing at least a few of us are out there, myself included! I have had almost every Google phone since the Nexus 4. The Nexus 5 might be my all-time favorite for what it was at the time, but I love my Pixel 8. No real drawbacks for me, but I can't give a personal comparison to the S22.
