If possible, you should report the coordinates of new colocations so we can add them to our maps. It would be much appreciated!

Also all towers are now upgraded to 8t8r equipment except towers on :
Cotton
Constitution
Those are mini macros
2nd tower on Zaragoza closer to George dieter still untouched has not been upgraded

Ported back to sprint yesterday. TMO was just to slow and getting slower (very large market share). After further optimization more band 41 going live sprint is getting faster and faster. Also, no volte live yet the I phone has the option, but the network is not making use of it yet here In El Paso. No band 26 as of yet.

Sprint installed at the bottom rack a multi-beam antennas has several sectors built into it.. spread out about 14-18 degrees from each other.. it’s common for stadiums handles a ton of capacity

This is in El Paso, Texas .. in the north side of town .. I’m about 8 miles away from the border it could possibly be coming in from there, but I doubt it

Oh, nice. Keep an eye on it in case deployment starts to spread more.

very quite in the forum, Any news on the VoLTE maket here? Alamogordo hasn't seen any new in a long time.

No I’m ABQ. I haven’t seen any new LTE carriers, volte, or anything. Service has suffered as a result.

Although not much in the city, the East Mountains (where I live) have been having upgrades like crazy. B41 2xca or 3xca on most sites now, along with TMobile roaming and ATT roaming. It’s crazy to see how Sprint is by far one of the strongest now up here. Just months ago it was only B25, and scattered B26 sites.

Does B41 work okay in the mountains?

Yes! Very well surprisingly, but being able to pull traffic away from the B25 2xCA nearly all around makes the experience amazing!

Well I think VoLTE was just launched in ABQ. I was on band 26 and got a call. I took it and then placed my phone on speaker. I looked and it said LTE still. I will try again and get pictures. 

It’s live in El Paso as well

    • Was in Red Hook again and I swear there are more Link5G sites as there are Verizon, T-Mobile, and AT&T small cells combined in the entire neighborhood. It seemed like every other street I turned down had one installed. Hopefully carriers will start hopping on them soon. Seems like a lot of effort to go through for no one to use them.  — — — — — T-Mobile converted the Sprint site on top of NYU Langone Brooklyn in Sunset Park. I first mapped one sector of it back in November 2023 but I thought it was a small cell so I never pinned it but I ran into another sector today which caught me off guard. I'm unable to find a permit for the conversion so it's definitely a surprise. There's another T-Mobile site 1 block away that T-Mobile initially installed back in 2019 so I'm kinda surprised they're keeping both considering the Sprint conversion is on a much taller building and coule potentially provide much better coverage to the entire area. 
    • Still not seeing any ULS postings for pending T-Mobile UScellular merger in Dane county Wisconsin.
    • Came across another Crown Castle Solutions multi-tenant oDAS node in Brooklyn. Located at 40.7002286, -73.9612666. Nothing on T-Mobile or AT&T so I'm assuming these are all Verizon nodes that Crown Castle is anticipating another carrier will hop on down the line.
    • Same with factory unlocked
