Well, pretty much requires getting out and doing some mapping or checking the cell IDs to pinpoint the tower.

 

I've got an iphone and its cant give sensorly the data it needs. Although it isjailbroken- is there an app that allows sensorly to map?

You can still check cell ids and such, there's a lot of good information on tracking down sites in the DFW/Austin and the New Orleans Sponsors threads

Big swath of coverage mapped in Buena Park on Beach Blvd.!

 

Still on the edge of the OC/LA markets. Not confident enough at this time to say that the OC market is now going LTE live. If coverage increases and we can make a better guess as to which tower the LTE is coming from, then we can celebrate!

So you think Buena Park is its own OC tower?

 

That particular stretch is likely from a tower in the LA market. Until we can see otherwise, assume all LTE reports are from the LA market. In the Sponsors section, I could point out which tower I expect it is from, however that information cannot be posted here.

What part of la? Buena park is deeper in oc than la habra and cerritos is kind of far west to hit Buena park

 

Well, regardless of where the actual OC boundary is, the Sprint LA Market comes up right against the 39 or Beach Blvd, whatever you call it, so a tower on that line could be broadcasting LTE into the OC market.

I'm from la mirada. I had lte in between imperial and rosecrans from la mirada to valley view. It was all pretty spotty. And as I drove down valley view towards buena park I had lte up until la Palma so roughly from imperial in la mirada to la Palma had some lte. La mirada is borderline oc la county so hopefully it keeps progressing

Just to make sure I understood your directions lol. From imperial going south to la Palma on valley view was spotty?

I think if people start to simply map their commutes in OC it will start to flesh out the coverage. It's just one stripe on beach blvd going to below the 91 fwy. That is definitely Orange County.

 

If it was LA, why would it not show up until recently? It seems like LA coverage hasn't expanded at all for a while... Then this pops up...

    • Definite usage quirks in hunting down these sites with a rainbow sim in a s24 ultra. Fell into a hole yesterday so sent off to T-Mobile purgatory. Try my various techniques. No Dish. Get within binocular range of former Sprint colocation and can see Dish equipment. Try to manually set network and everybody but no Dish is listed.  Airplane mode, restart, turn on and off sim, still no Dish. Pull upto 200ft from site straight on with antenna.  Still no Dish. Get to manual network hunting again on phone, power off phone for two minutes. Finally see Dish in manual network selection and choose it. Great signal as expected. I still think the 15 minute rule might work but lack patience. (With Sprint years ago, while roaming on AT&T, the phone would check for Sprint about every fifteen minutes. So at highway speed you could get to about the third Sprint site before roaming would end). Using both cellmapper and signalcheck.net maps to hunt down these sites. Cellmapper response is almost immediate these days (was taking weeks many months ago).  Their idea of where a site can be is often many miles apart. Of course not the same dataset. Also different ideas as how to label a site, but sector details can match with enough data (mimo makes this hard with its many sectors). Dish was using county spacing in a flat suburban area, but is now denser in a hilly richer suburban area.  Likely density of customers makes no difference as a poorer urban area with likely more Dish customers still has country spacing of sites.
    • Mike if you need more Dish data, I have been hunting down sites in western Columbus.  So far just n70 and n71 reporting although I CA all three.
    • Good catch! I meant 115932/119932. Edited my original post I've noticed the same thing lately and have just assumed that they're skipping it now because they're finally able to deploy mmWave small cells.
