Dkoellerwx Posted February 13, 2013 Share Posted February 13, 2013 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... LA's coverage is still expanding, it's just not as noticeable. That stripe is right on the LA Market boarder. There are still many many many sites to go in the LA market. Some parts of the LA market still don't have LTE, mainly along the edges.

Jonnytheg Posted February 13, 2013 Share Posted February 13, 2013 Just to make sure I understood your directions lol. From imperial going south to la Palma on valley view was spotty? Haha my bad but yeah exactly. There was no more coverage after I passed the 91. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rblake23 Posted February 13, 2013 Share Posted February 13, 2013 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. Now that you point out that the Sprint market boundary actually goes right up against Beach Blvd, I'm really convinced this is bleed-over from the LA market. Can you maybe post in the completed sites comments in the sponsor section which site you think it might be coming from? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure, give me a moment to put something together, and figure out the right forum. Ha. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll head east on Artesia to Beach north to Alondra then west tomorrow. If 4g is still lit up, there should be dark purple on Sensorly at Alondra and Knott in the afternoon.

HTCandroid Posted February 13, 2013 Share Posted February 13, 2013 Its lit up as we speak. Is rsrp better the lower it is or higher? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dkoellerwx Posted February 13, 2013 Share Posted February 13, 2013 Its lit up as we speak. Is rsrp better the lower it is or higher? Less negative... lol. -70 to -85 would indicate you're pretty close to the tower. -85 to -95 you're in a good range. -95 to -105, getting kind of far, -105 and beyond it's a distant site.

Dkoellerwx Posted February 13, 2013 Share Posted February 13, 2013 yea...........totally bummed. LA is just bleeding all over north western OC =/ this is a lame question but how do you add pics...lol Best way is to upload to an image hosting website such as flickr, photoshop, dropbox and then link back here. Or, there is a way to upload to the site, but there's only so much room. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HTCandroid Posted February 13, 2013 Share Posted February 13, 2013 (edited) ahhh. No worries. I'll just explain my findings. I was directly under it. My RSRP was as low as -69dBm. Max down load speed was 19.76Mbps. I have 2 decent shots of the base and the top of the tower. I did a normal pic with my evo and it was all black. Switched to HDR and bam! clear shots with only the flash. Edited February 13, 2013 by HTCandroid Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S4GRU Posted February 13, 2013 Share Posted February 13, 2013 A new LTE site was accepted today in that area, just inside the LA Metro boundary. Its on the Sponsor maps now. Robert via Samsung Note II via Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HTCandroid Posted February 13, 2013 Share Posted February 13, 2013 So where exactly is that tower? its literally in the dark purple zone. In when where stage and alondra meet. Of your driving west in stage it will bee on the left when you hit alondra. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
