For me in Tucson the network seems really fast

 

It's getting better. One site at a time.

it seems to vary greatly tower by tower

 

Each tower is always going to vary. The users in a given tower Determine the performance of it. If you have a ton of people streaming Netflix on a tower it's going to be more loaded than another tower with 10x the people but they are only browsing the web.

has the antennas and RRU's put together on the ground, and the lift is on site.. So hopefully any time now they will mount them up on the tower. :-) Happy camper, this site is very close to my casa..

well considering that Yuma only has about 13 or 14 sites. it should be quick for us. I think the signs on the gates I saw were dated the latest 8-17-13; all others were earlier than that.

What is a good app to locate the towers in my area on my android ? I have Antennas, but i don't think it has accurate location data- ( I can be exactly next to a tower, according to it, and there is no tower to be seen). Opensignal just freezes all the time

Still on 3g, and still very slow unstable 3g. I'm sure we won't see any LTE signal for another couple months

    • 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 could 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. 
    • 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
    • June security update is out (S22U TMO)
