mikejeep Posted July 19, 2013 Share Posted July 19, 2013 I was wondering how accurate the BSL is on Signal Pro...I saw a location the other day when I ran it in Syl and I know there shouldn't be a tower where it was addressing ....because I know the 3 for this area. But it still showed it after I cycled data. So far every app I've tried (signalcheck being the exception, don't have the pro version yet) puts a site right in the middle of a weapons test range on Redstone Arsenal. SignalCheck Pro will probably show the same spot any other apps do.. see here for why: http://www.bluelinepc.com/signalcheck/help/#bslwrong -Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonathanm1978 Posted August 12, 2013 Author Share Posted August 12, 2013 Ok...I can say with pride that Sylacauga has LTE on one of the towers and thanks to Sensorly, I've laid down some purple track on the way home from some visiting we did over the weekend to Troy, Alabama. I'm headed back to town in a few to check which site it is, but I got a good idea already and will take photos to post for the supporters...but it's been on since Friday when I suddenly felt that 3-vibrate notification that Sigcheck does when LTE is found. I was in town on Thursday and there wasn't any LTE in the same spot..so I know they had just got it on Friday morning and were still working on it when we hit hwy 21 headed towards Montgomery. I Sensorly'd some in Montgomery but there was already someone doing it in that area...I'm happy to say I'm the only sensorly user in the Sylacauga area - besides my wife, I made her download it yesterday when we came back to Sylacauga because it shouldn't be long before she starts seeing some around Wilsonville/Columbiana, where the power plant is... If you look at the Sensorly map, when I get home later the word "Sylacauga" should have some dark purple on it...if I'm right about the tower that's been flipped on. I'm going right there where you can see the hwy 34 just under the word Sylacauga, and around in the entire area surrounding that street.(though that's not where the antenna is, I'm going to do some extra driving to put down some purple).

uh60james Posted August 17, 2013 Share Posted August 17, 2013 I laid down some purple near the 20/59 junction in Birmingham Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonathanm1978 Posted August 17, 2013 Author Share Posted August 17, 2013 I've been around Centerpoint when they turned that first tower on and put some track down from 459 on in.

caradineme2 Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 Huewytown seems to be lighting up more lately. Noticed signal on more roads than usual today.

jonathanm1978 Posted August 22, 2013 Author Share Posted August 22, 2013 Not so much the download speed as most things on a phone can operate on 5mbps, give or take a meg per second, but upload speed is important because things sync so often.

jonathanm1978 Posted September 10, 2013 Author Share Posted September 10, 2013 Looks like Columbiana is getting LTE, (or Wilsonville). My wife just called me from work and told me...so I got her to text me a couple of screenshots: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

caradineme2 Posted October 1, 2013 Share Posted October 1, 2013 More and more 4g popping up around the Bessemer and Huewytown area. Download test at 15mb and uploads 6mb.

jonathanm1978 Posted October 1, 2013 Author Share Posted October 1, 2013 I'm heading to (almost) Trussville today, and i think there is some more mapping I can do during my trip...this was one of the first areas in the state, aside from Tuscaloosa, to get a live LTE site.

Maya Blue Posted October 21, 2013 Share Posted October 21, 2013 Long time reader, first time poster... I'm in Huntsville, so decided to create an account when I first started seeing 4G. Noticed it the other day and started laying down the purple. So far I've found it in the Hampton Cove area, and on University Dr. around Madison Sq. Mall.

jonathanm1978 Posted October 21, 2013 Author Share Posted October 21, 2013 I haven't done much with Sensorly since I left headed to Slidell for my brother's funeral on October 10. I dunno..I've lost interest in lots of things since then and just haven't had the urge to do much...but it's good to see Sprint working so fast to get LTE up and going in areas that are so rural, like the Sylacauga area. I had LTE at my dads, and at the Microtel on 1090 in Pearl River...and even on the West Pearl when we went out in the boat. I just wasn't thinking and didn't map anything on our travels.

Bteague13 Posted October 29, 2013 Share Posted October 29, 2013 I'm here in the Huntsville area too. I've noticed LTE being turned on as you go up N. Memorial Parkway in the plaza with Redstone Federal Credit Union and Lowe's also pass Memorial Parkway and Winchester. I took a screen shot of the speed test, but not sure how to post it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bravesfan Posted November 2, 2013 Share Posted November 2, 2013 Well I have been getting LTE around Madison and close to Triana off and on the past two or three days, I have mapped some of it with Sensorly, though I still have to do Zierdt and some other areas. I have to say seeing 4G on my phone was a very nice surprise after roaming for almost two weeks at home, I still wonder if what I saw at the I-565 site had anything to do with it, as it started right after I saw a lift crane (I think) at the top Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
