They are starting the ABQ market with the site next to my house. I just ran into subcontractors for Ericsson who are starting to upgrade my site in El Valle de Arroyo Seco, New Mexico. Unbelievable!!!

OK. I've now uploaded pics. I talked with the guys there. They are electricians hired by SBA. SBA is subcontracted to Ericsson. They are here to install the RRU's only today. My site here did no

I'm thinking it's linked to the main address on the account.

I just don't see it happening. I guess we can hope. What is interesting is that more and more I see towers have legacy removed.

 

They pulled the legacy cabinets about two weeks ago down here. Contractor told me they still need back haul and the AAV installed. Do not know what AAV stands for. I was hopeful f the back haul was close when CL marked all their lines near the tower (about 100 yards away) then remarked them about a month ago. Nothing has been done since.

I was quoting official sprint stuff. According to sprint albuquerque sits in the El Paso market. That's from my bud who works in Overland Park Kansas.

 

Not quite.  There is some misunderstanding occurring.  El Paso is in Sprint's Albuquerque market.  Sprint has 99 markets, and not one of them is named El Paso.  However, where the confusion may be occurring is that the Sprint MSC (switch) for the Albuquerque market is in El Paso.  In the Sponsor section it shows every one of Sprint's ~39,000 sites and which market and MSC they belong to.

 

Here is a map showing the Sprint markets and their names:  http://s4gru.forumflash.com/uploads/gallery/album_5/gallery_1_5_299248.jpg

Yeah I just verified with the regional district mgr of sprint mountain division. ABQ in El Paso cause he's working on the LTE deployment here.

 

I've seen some other contractors state the market for another city was incorrect, but wasn't the case either.  In believe there's been a loss of translation based on a smaller defined area they are working in as I've heard someone say the Baton Rouge area was not in the New Orleans market.  When in fact, you can see tickets today list the Baton Rouge area as New Orleans market.  But the actual true defined Sprint markets are the ones detailed in the map.

ABQ IS NOT IN THE EL PASO MARKET.  Please refer to post above that clearly outlines what is going on with regards to the market.  There is no El Paso market.  El Paso is in the Albuquerque market.  Albuquerque market sites connect to the El Paso switch.  Please refer to the map.

 

I also recommend you take this information back to your sources and I bet they will corroborate that.  I think you are misunderstanding them.  You (or they) are getting a market confused with an MSC (switch).

I never understand people who will adamantly argue something they do not have a direct understanding of.

Nope - its gotta be location based because my account address is in Texas and I live in Santa Fe.  I mean I guess it could mean improvements are coming to Santa Fe but I really doubt that since we're basically living in the stone age there (hyperbole - obviously).  i work in Albuquerque so I'm here everyday, though.

I wouldn't be so pessimistic.  Before Robert moved away he ran across someone installing fiber on the site on the hill just south of Santa Fe.  I expect to see ABQ and SF to come online with LTE around the same time.

I expect them to start going live around d the same time too. To clarify, the fiber was being installed at the I-25 and St. Francis site (which still hasn't even been accepted 3G). He said they were working on other sites around Santa Fe too.

My bad about the site... My brain has been fried recently due to the never ending job search.

My wife (Electrical Engr) and I (Mechanical Engr) are looking to go anywhere.  If you have connections or suggestions up there I am all ears.

I understand the willingness to move, but NM needs to seriously looking at the number of graduates that are leaving the state.  This is starting to become a concern of mine with the ABQ Economic Development Forum.  There are not a sufficient number of jobs with skills in the city (or state).

      SignalCheck Beta Crew Forum

      I was traveling for a couple of days.   Sunday evening, I upload from 3 phones.  A S-22 and two Moto 5G phones.  Everything looked ok.    How do we explain that?   One person has issues and another person does not.  All my phones have the latest update.

      Uploaded data without issues on Friday. Now with the latest update I am getting "Cluster #1 skipped: invalid file format detected. File exported for inspection." Doing same with all other clusters. Did this on 4 phones in a row.  Seems to work on s24 ultra just fine. On s21 ultra it says "web data upload failed. No data to send" although 8800 records were displayed. Now gives same error as above. I have not sent the data from 3 other phones.  All should have latest update.

      SignalCheck - Android app to monitor your Wi-Fi/2G/3G/4G LTE/5G-NR signal strengths

      By mikejeep · Posted

      After several months of testing, an update to SignalCheck Pro is rolling out on Google Play. It may take up to 48 hours to become available for download. Notable changes include: Added option to display site notes for NSA 5G-NR cells. Enabling this new option (Preferences > Display Settings > Show NSA 5G-NR Site Notes) will cause the app to make an "educated guess" as to what the most appropriate site note is linked to the connected NSA 5G cell, using the PCI and the device location. If it finds an existing entry that is likely to be relevant, it will display the note along with the distance from where the strongest signal from that cell was logged. While connected to NSA 5G, these notes cannot be edited; a valid NCI is required to add/edit notes and that information is not available on NSA connections.   Added option to log cells with missing/invalid PLMN (such as NSA 5G-NR cells). Users asked for the ability to log data for NSA 5G, so a new option (Preferences > Logger Settings > Log Cells with Missing PLMN) will permit this.   Added option to display LTE info above 5G-NR info. Enabling this new option (Preferences > Display Settings > Show LTE Cells Above 5G-NR Cells) shows the same information that is currently displayed, but moves the LTE information above the 5G-NR information. Other changes: Code optimizations and enhancements. Improved Android 15 compatibility. Overhauled Purchases module. Resolved force closes impacting some GSM/LTE connections. Resolved issue with improper 5G-NR PLMN display when NR/LTE PLMNs did not match. Resolved issue with improper PLMN display with single-digit MNCs. Resolved issue with incorrect 5G-NR bands displayed on some devices due to Android bug. Resolved issue with incorrect number of neighbor cells displayed when some cells were unknown. Resolved issue with missing 5G-NR data when sector display is enabled. Resolved issue with saving 5G-NR site notes when NR/LTE PLMNs did not match. Resolved issue with settings to log missing GCI/NCI/TAC/PLMN being ignored. Resolved issues with web data export function. Updated internal libraries. Updated provider database. Updated target API to Android 15. I appreciate all of your support, and a big thank you to the members of the Beta Crew that help with testing and feedback!

      Network Vision/LTE - New York City Market

      Stopped by again today and the antennas are up but it isn't live just yet. If other Sprint conversions are anything to go by it'll likely take about a month for the site to go live.
