Hi everyone, Sorry about the slow updates today. Sometimes we have to do a little maintenance and this one took longer than planned. When that happens new data received doesn't get added to the maps

Well looks like my time in Tampa is drawing near. I've been accepted to the Master's of Computer Science program at UNF in Jacksonville for the Fall semester. Now I have two NV cities to monitor!!

I'm having 3G issues over in Brandon. It seems to work when I disenable LTE, leading me to think that the EHRPD/LTE core is down.

I think so, since noon I can only get a data signal only if its on CDMA only, even in a non LTE area. Even my wife's OG EVO is having a hard time connecting to 3G.

Wow, I am shocked it that is truly the case. There is a site south of there that has had panels for some time and I would have expected that to come up online first. There is one near my house that has had panels for a couple of weeks now, longer than that site, and it isn't alive yet. Wondering if they are just testing at this point. I'll check out Sensorly and will comment later.

Sensorly is up to 5 days behind on all but the closest zoom levels acording to them. They said it should be fixed in a couple days. I mapped something on Friday and it still hasn't shown up except on the closest zoom level.

Yes, I have seen that, even with my own mapping. However, I went to the max zoom in and he's right. I went to the max zoom level and saw his mapping. I am really shocked as those panels just went up... literally. They must have been really ready with everything else on that one. I want the site near my house to go live. I'll do a lot of mapping with it on the bicycle :)

I want that site on Fowler to go live already. The site on BB Downs covers me just fine, but I think I've gotten some what annoyed at seeing those panels but no LTE icon on my phone lol.

Any known known clusters up and running New Vision? Really hoping to see in building coverage improve with Sprint.

 

Probably won't get much improvement inside until 800smr starts lighting up.

It was my understanding when the light up clusters the 800 smr will be turned on. Is that not correct?

So I have LTE at TPA

If you mean TPA (Airport), it is possible to catch weak signal from the tower just north of the field. The Marriott (which you will see all of the various carrier cabinets and antennas mounted below the revolving restaurant) as of this morning, has had zero activity. I work there and check every day.

My office (near Bryan Dairy and Belcher Road in Largo) has a cell tower adjacent to our parking lot - they are installing Sprint LTE equipment as I write this.

 

When I drove into work today there was a big crane, trucks, and workers clustered around the tower. I walked over to them to ask what was happening and they advised that they were installing LTE equipment for Sprint.

Ok its Friday, anyone notice any new activations of completed sites today?

I think a tower near US 19 and Spring Hill Dr is activated. I was spending the day with my mom and had her in the car so I couldn't map. She would have yelled at me "watch the road" even though I haven't lived home in 16 years lol. I know when I glanced the signal was sub -90.

      T-Mobile to acquire UScellular

      By Dkoellerwx · Posted

      Probably a lot of Midwest towers. Slight bias since Nebraska is a weird market, but there are tons of USCC sites that T-Mobile isn't yet co-located on. Think a similar situation in Iowa, Wisconsin, and Missouri. But some other markets, like yours, probably don't have that issue!

      Sticky Customers - YES, and leave them flip to the T-Mobile PLMN when needed and they will be even more likely to Stick.

      It seems to me that if the goal is to improve rural, the US Cellular buy-out would get them only part of the way there, considering there are plenty of rural areas that US Cellular does not serve.  But I also have a hard time reading it the way I think that article is, that the cost of this deal comes straight out of the $9 billion.  I mean, they're getting spectrum for their existing operations in US Cellular markets, including places that I wouldn't call rural.  (Roanoke, VA is the 9th largest city in the state, for example.)  It seems like some of it should be allocated to rural expansion, but certainly not the whole purchase price. There's also something to be said for getting the customer base of potentially sticky customers who have been used to US Cellular being the only game in town for potentially decades. - Trip

      By dkyeager · Posted

      T-Mobile has stated 15% of their sites don't have 5g triband. In WV I know WISPs had a lot of 2.5GHz, but T-Mobile was trying to buy as much as possible. More rural FWA would be a big selling point that might overcome any soft bandwidth cap slight overages. Especially since UScellular likely started offering it on c-band.
