Just woke up in Madisonville discovered that they turned on 4G.

 

Excellent! Thanks for the pics! Will put it on my sheet once you map it out to determine which site it is. Looks like the site isn't really all that close to you with that -113 signal.

easiest way would be to upload them to photobucket or similar and link them in the thread.I saw your mapping (well I assume its you) on sensorly and if I were a betting man,I say you were connected to the tower near the navy base in Belle Chasse. I havnt been out hunting lately,but that was the only other visually completed tower on the westbank below algiers.

I went tower spotting with my youngest daughter this morning.

 

Lee @ Nicholson by Mike Anderson's - nothing

Burbank by Lakeside Bar and Grill - nothing

Highland @ Sotile behind Ruffino's - nothing

 

brief stop at Milk and Honey Gelato shop to make it all worthwhile for my daughter.

 

Oh, I forgot, I did stop by the Brec soccer complex on Burbank. The picture says it all:

 

With all the rain lately, the access road to this tower is under water.

Very cool another upgraded tower in BR!

 

In Hammond today for some reason ;)

 

Was digging through the SystemUI.apk code over coffee this morning and saw the LTE icon. Even saw the ATT and VZW ones too. I don't get why they have ours configured to show 4g instead of LTE. It is so much easier to see.

 

My Tasker profile works good. It texts me and goes crazy when 4g turns on. Ha! Of course I will tone it down once 4g fires up in my area as it could get annoying.

De-lurking to report that the Woldenberg Park stuff was me, and that I was getting zero signal on the fourth floor of my office building in the heart of the FQ. (I'm the lone mid-quarter green dot on the Wimax map). I'm running a stock LG OG, and it seemed like the signal completely died when I crossed Decatur going back to the office. On the drive home it held on until just crossing Canal. Zero signal on lower Poydras.

 

Unfortunately, the Canal signal was discovered after I left work, otherwise I would have walked down to check it out.

 

Glad to see there are others are crazy as I about mapping this signal. I'm a guy who took his dog on a walk around the CBD one Saturday to map the Wimax.

Spotted an Ericsson truck and another company. Couldn't see the logo. It was in Hammond just northeast of I12 and I55. They had a cable hanging down from the tower connected to the truck. No LTE there yet.

 

The Hammond area will be all complete pretty soon.

 

West of Hammond and I55 the two sites were 1x only. Confirmed on two phones.

 

LOTS of water out here in Livingston Parish and Hammond area. WOW! They definitely don't need anymore but it's coming.

All of the LTE in Kenner and Metairie is all from the same one tower that is live. Just went through the whole perimiter, and verified sectors. While I am impressed with the coverage (or at least faint signal) by this site, I am just wishing these others would light up! I can only imagine how well we will be blanketed once they are all on.

 

On an interesting note, all of the equipment at the Transcontinental site is no longer on the ground, and it does not appear to be on the tower!

Spotted some nv panels at the best western Avalon hotel located at I10/Read blvd in New Orleans east These panels were attached to the front side of the building about 4 stories up. First time seeing that.

Just found this handy app on the Play Store. It's an easier way of viewing your signal strength instead of going the "debug" route.

 

It's called Advanced Signal Status.
