Metaire site from bestbuy

 

(Same signal str as earlier from poland site but way faster)

Jus got lte by the old six flags in the east close to where I live lost it 1 min. from my house. Did a speedtest highest I got was 22 mbps down and 11 mbps up. So happy. On the lte discovery app it caught my lte GPS location, which I will post.

I live near Morrison and Bullard. Wish I could grab that signal from there but no luck.

That was the first site found in NOLA. We don't have any LTE ids for that site yet. So please take pics of the engineering screens. It seems to be mapped out pretty well on Sensorly.

I think this what u were talkin bout in lte engineering and the white one is lte discovery.

[digiblur]

Yep.. I see the 124 signal and no 4g connection. But I can see the sector ID.

Jus went outside to see what would happen, got lte again for about 7 second. Had to walk a little down the street but finally got it but didn't hav time for more speed test. But will get more tommorow.

Snag a screenshot of the lte engineering. Don't think we have the hex code for many of them yet.

I'm on CM so I don't think i can access those screens.

Nope.. Not unless you have a nandroid to flip to.

No LTE from the LA30 and I10 site in Gonzales yet. Guess it is blocked for some reason since it is on the list.

[geaux]

Any word on site around W Metairie and Clearview?

 

 

Sensuously and this site has been awesome ! Thanks to all those contributing!

[teamgs3]

Yea I know, if it wasn't for this site I wouldn't know half of what I know now.

[patrickdurhamno]

Quiet day. Not much chatter and haven't noticed much besides crew at LIve Oak site working on ground.

[kevins669]

That's interesting, the hardware up top has been finished for a while.

 

I passed by 4 other completed ones today, and no LTE there.

 

Also found a Sprint COW on Veterans though...for parades.

[patrickdurhamno]

Where at on vets didnt notice a 4g signal while I was on vets.

[digiblur]

RRU and panels are only half the work. Still have cabinets on ground to install.

[kevins669]

I looked through the fence a while ago and I'm sure I saw the cabinets...

It's a legacy COW. Belmont and vets

I think it will be quiet for a couple of weeks as they catch up from weather delays. Have a strong feeling I am going to miss my 22nd estimated date for BR.

 

Maybe they will send the crews here when Superbowl mardi gras week is there clogging up the streets and hotels.

If it is an ATT site you could very well see the same exact cabinets. And we of course do not know what is wired up.. Is the backhaul working.. Etc.

[kevins669]

Yeah, it looks like the vendor for Sprint and att use the same ones, based on the sites I have looked at. If I remember right, att is on the next tower over, and Verizon is on the Sprint one... but I may have that reversed.

 

I have usually seen the site prep work and all done before rrus, antennas, and wiring up top. If the cabinet and backhaul are really running this far behind, yikes!

[digiblur]

Backhaul is the only thing I can see from our perspective. RRUs are up and powered. Cables are all hooked up. Cabinets are in and look complete from outside. Site sits for 2-3 months with no LTE. You would think by then that if it was a part it would have been installed by now. It's not the core of course. Either waiting on the inspector or backhaul. Since Ericsson can't inspect their own towers maybe the acceptance guy is behind.

 

All speculation of course.. Not sure who they are getting backhaul from but if it is Cox fiber they are very quick to install and activate.

[patrickdurhamno]

The new sprint cabinet has been at live Oak site for a while its in the front on new lumber you can see it through fence. Not sure what they were doing today I was hoping inspection.
