Wonder if this https://www.reddit.com/r/Sprint/comments/5jth69/fcc_filing_sprint_supplement_to_pending_arizona/?st=ixxjwpwo&sh=126772fc is the reason for movement on B41 in the Arizona/New Mexico market.

Az nm have been seeing movement on band 41 & band 26 for nm. It was El Paso I was worried about that there was no movement, but now I've sited Nokia band 41 equipment

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 should of wrote that better... New Mexico has seen movement on band 26 and Arizona has seen movement on band 41. And now New Mexico market is seeing movement on band 41.. since you here for a few minutes quick questions.. is the manufacturing tech really going to travel in and out of the market to just turn on single band 41 sites?

I'm not sure what you mean by manufacturing tech. The teams that test and integrate sites goes where they are told. If there is one site and only one site to do, and they are told to go there, they will.

I see, cause site is not live yet. Site has been under inspection status since last year July.. is their a chance sprint will turn sites on in a cluster ?

They have not done B41 in clusters at any point. With the way different permit sites work in the many different cities I have seen them discussed, it's difficult to say what "under inspection" really means. The equipment may have been installed very recently. Since no one was looking for it, we won't really be able to know.

Thanks for the info! I guess their isn't any change on band 26 for El Paso.. I've seen waiver filed, but idk if their was one for El Paso. I will locate the sites and see if band 41 equipment has been added

This is correct. The Albuquerque market had not seen any Band 41 movement until the pictures posted. Nothing in Albuquerque.

I haven't seen any more with b26 recently. Back when 800 was rolled out in the city (ABQ) I think right away most started broadcasting b26

It will be a better experience in Albuquerque since you guys already have band 26

I think the experience is acceptable for most of the city. Again, if sprint would just finish the five or so GMO's it would fix some of the issues I experience up on the north side of town.

Does sprint have any GMOs in El Paso? . Their is one area I know that sprint can't seem to get approved to convert to LTE

That stealth site still only looks like B25. The permit says it's ready to issue and the permit for the one on Mesa and Shadow Mntn Dr was taken down.

The one on mesa says in review.. The ones that say ready to issue can be upgraded any day now correct

Considering there is no "in construction" status I would assume yes. I wonder if their stacking 5 sites so they can send a crew out there for a week and get those installs complete.

That's what im thinking. I also wonder whats next for this market..wiil we have to wait for small cells just like we are still doing on band 41.. band 26 approvals are becoming a bigger issue, since we are still waiting for it to get approved.. will small cells fix tower spacing/ dropping down to 3G often

Both sites at montwood and cotton are changed to inspection

The last one is in RF Review, once that passes it should be good to go. We'll see how much of an impact this has.
