He was right about WiMax? So he told you that Clearwire was deploying WiMax Protection Sites around Detroit to just meet FCC substantial service requirements? Because, if he didn't say that, he wasn

I was on Newburgh Rd. passing 5 Mile, going towards I-96 and picked up Band 41 today. I'm pretty sure it came from the tower at 275 and 5 Mile.

I also picked across the one on I-275 and 5 mile when I was on traveling on 275.

How is the connectivity on the Nexus 6 and have you experienced any screen burn in issues? I've heard of burn in issues where there is a heavy pink tint.

The connectivity is awesome, I have never had such smooth transitions from 4G to 3G and back. Miles better then my Nexus 5. As far as burn in I have not seen any signs of that.

I picked up quite a bit of Band 41 in Detroit Sunday and Monday. Fullerton Ave and Mendota Ave, on I-96, Grand River Ave, on I-94, Willis and Chene, and Dequindre and Mack.

How's sprint lte inside buildings in aa?

Poor. No 800 MHz and insufficient cell density makes for a bad experience. B41 will help with congestion, but won't do anything to improve in-building coverage.

Please do speed test on sensorly to see where on map speed is good. Thanks.

I don't use sensoorly, I find that it's too slow. I prefer Ooklas speed test app. Plus sensorly drain my battery too much, so I'm going to have to decline.

Picked up LTE in the form of Band 41 today at Northville Rd. and I-96. I couldn't any other streets, but I originally picked it by a building that had a big Federal Mogul sign on it, while on a turnaround, to get on I-96.

In better news in Highland Michigan right off 23 and M-59 on B41 I got 40 down and 13 up and a tower further east on M-59 I managed 49 down and 13 up.

Those are some pretty fast speeds. Can't wait till it's official.

In Ann Arbor at I-94 and Jackson Road I got about 20 down and 14 up on B41. I'll be testing more Ann Arbor later this week hopefully.

Glad to see AA is lighting up fairly well.

      Network Vision/LTE - New York City Market

      By Paynefanbro · Posted

      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.  — — — — — The old permit expired for this site without any work being done but a new permit was just approved a few days ago for a T-Mobile site at this address. Description mentions 3 antennas with 2 RRUs per sector. My guess is they're doing something similar to what they did at 360 Furman St in Brooklyn where they broadcast Band 2/66 and n25/41 from one antenna. It's a bit of a downgrade considering the site it's replacing was a full build with Ericsson 6449s.

      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.
