I would think they would want someone there for initial testing. It would be kinda bad if something was a miss in the RRU causing interference on another carrier's signals. I know they do some drive testing as well.

anyone else see a sensorly spot of purple in Hammond?

 

I'm glad to see the tower I reported is live. ;)

Tornado Intercept Vehicle. Made popular by the show Storm Chasers.

 

That's what I thought it was. Very cool. Thought maybe Sean Casey gave up store chasing. I follow Timmer a bit, he has his own show on his site. Not to bad.

The show got played out. There just really isn't much you can change on TV for storm chasing. Kinda like the gator hunting show.

100% humidity sucks for LTE hunting. Maybe I could catch the TIV.

Bad TIV day. Not good for the photogenic tornadoes that that idiot... I mean Sean likes to drive through.

 

Now if you happen to see the TIV, and the Dominator in town at the same time, it's probably time to get out!

Also, is it weird that the Sprint network map keeps changing where towers are located?

 

https://network.sprint.com/search/70115/

 

A week or so ago, there was definitely an icon at the corner of General Pershing and Camp (which I could not find IRL). Also, I took pictures of the panels on the condos by Audubon Zoo, which are now not listed on this link.

 

Contrary to that, is now, there is a tower icon on S. Broad by Earhart (3900 Erato), that was certainly not there a week ago, along with the one on the roof of the Monroe dorms at Tulane that had been present before, but was not listed a few weeks ago.

 

Is Sprint messing with us? I guess I should just donate and get premium access on this site so I know what's really going on.

That site only shows sites upgraded in last 6 months.

 

Donate what you can. There's benefits for all levels of sponsorship. We even have a new orleans thread with more goodies.

I donated a couple of weeks ago and certainly think it was worth it. Haven't had time to really explore everything in the sponsor section but if for nothing else just the donation for hosting and time needed to keep the site running was good enough for me.

    • Dish network down since 3:31am Signalcheck Pro reports the Dish Network, at least the site at Scioto-Darby Rd Near I-270  in Columbus Ohio, was last operational at 3:31am. I normally pickup signal from two other Dish sites as well.  Reported via downdetector.com as Boost Infinite but one is such a lonely number. Tried to manually reconnect to Dish, but network is not appearing. Hopefully scheduled maintenance.
    • 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
