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

No, the New Mexico market hadn't seen any B41 movment... not until you reported it since you are in the New Mexico market.

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.

Any new tower sites going up or new sites with band 26 on them

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.

    • What device is that on? 
    • Been in Japan for the past few days, and I'm about to leave today. Google Fi/Tmus roaming in Japan only had Softbank LTE, so it was pretty slow in busy areas, especially HND (albeit usable in most places). When I got to Osaka, I bought a KDDI native SIM from Aerobile, which is an esim reseller based in Taiwan. With this au/KDDI SIM, I could get NR, and that really improved the network experience here. Even though my phone is missing many ENDC combos here, having b1 + n77 or b3 + n77 or b41 + n78 really helps out with the congested LTE network here. As a bonus, 4cc n257 also works on my s24, and I've reached peaks of 2gbps with it. I'm heading to China today, so hopefully Google Fi supports 5G on whatever carrier they roam on in the mainland. If not, I'll probably be stuck on congested LTE like the first couple of days in Japan.
    • Mike, I just noticed on my S22 Ultra when connected to Verizon n261 SCP is reporting it as n257. I don't see mmwave very often and I didn't notice it at the time I was connected to it. Not sure if it matters but I'm on Visible. 
    • Here's my personal best, as well as the maximum speed I was able to get over 5gbps USB tethering. Millimeter wave is definitely a lot of fun, and I wish AT&T and T-Mobile would deploy a lot more of it.
