Network Vision/LTE - Tampa Market


Feech

Recommended Posts

 

Then it happened on my entire drive today. I live near SR52 and Moon Lake Rd, in Pasco. From the time I left the driveway, until I arrived at the office in Tampa, it happened on every cycle. So either it is a false positive, or there's about to be a ton of LTE coming online very soon.

 

Well i dont know if I would be that optimistic, but it is definitely something the phone is reporting.

I can only pick up a LTE signal if I'm within a half mile or so near the tower on my EVO. Do any of you think having a case on the EVO might be hindering the signal since the radio is weak already? Sorry if off topic.

 

Unless its made out of lead then I doubt it lol.

Any word on western Pasco, New Port Richey, Holiday, Tarpon Springs.... that area...

 

There is active progress in Hernando, I already list the pictures of the brooksville site that has the RRU's installed already but still not active. Also yesterday I discovered the site at sr50(cortez blvd) and SR19 had the RRU's installed. As soon as I get the photos uploaded to dropbox I will add the photos to the forum.

Right before x mas I seen guys on a tower just north of tarpon ave on the west side of the road on us 19, haven't had time to check to see if it was sprint or not.

Figures that area would light up after I'd already went back to Brandon...

 

Surprisingly, nothing in that area was in the latest update. Perhaps a sign that Sprint is moving faster than we can track them? This bodes very well.

Chances are it was the one of the first sites inspected since Robert got an update from his sources. I believe he gets all of the completed towers just once or twice a week so it would be really easy for circumstances like this to occur.

I noticed there is now a dark spot at bears and Bruce b downs. Is there a new tower there or could it be coming in from the new bb downs and i75? Or IHOP tower?

 

It's coming from one of those towers. Probably someone on the second or third floor of their apartment getting LOS.

    • Was in Red Hook again and I swear there are more Link5G sites as there are Verizon, T-Mobile, and AT&T small cells combined in the entire neighborhood. It seemed like every other street I turned down had one installed. Hopefully carriers will start hopping on them soon. Seems like a lot of effort to go through for no one to use them.  — — — — — T-Mobile converted the Sprint site on top of NYU Langone Brooklyn in Sunset Park. I first mapped one sector of it back in November 2023 but I thought it was a small cell so I never pinned it but I ran into another sector today which caught me off guard. I'm unable to find a permit for the conversion so it's definitely a surprise. There's another T-Mobile site 1 block away that T-Mobile initially installed back in 2019 so I'm kinda surprised they're keeping both considering the Sprint conversion is on a much taller building and could potentially provide much better coverage to the entire area.  — — — — — The old permit expired for this site without any work being done but a new permit was just approved a few days ago for a T-Mobile site at this address. Description mentions 3 antennas with 2 RRUs per sector. My guess is they're doing something similar to what they did at 360 Furman St in Brooklyn where they broadcast Band 2/66 and n25/41 from one antenna. It's a bit of a downgrade considering the site it's replacing was a full build with Ericsson 6449s. 
    • Still not seeing any ULS postings for pending T-Mobile UScellular merger in Dane county Wisconsin.
    • Came across another Crown Castle Solutions multi-tenant oDAS node in Brooklyn. Located at 40.7002286, -73.9612666. Nothing on T-Mobile or AT&T so I'm assuming these are all Verizon nodes that Crown Castle is anticipating another carrier will hop on down the line.
    • Same with factory unlocked
