newgroundsguru Posted December 27, 2013 Share Posted December 27, 2013 Where is that small track on La Cholla coming from? I was driving on River and i got it for 5 or so seconds and couldn't reconnect. Also all that LTE on I-10 to Orange Grove does not work, or at least i couldn't connect to it..

Also all that LTE on I-10 to Orange Grove does not work, or at least i couldn't connect to it.. I mapped that track on La Cholla but the signal strength is so weak that it is hard to tell where it is coming from. I got the hexidecimal ID code for it but not sure which tower it would be associated with at this time. Signal comes and goes. I would say the triangle from river, ruthrauff and I 10 has a tower in the middle of it however I would feel the signal strength would be stronger unless they are operating on a dummy load. it could also be another tower.

FanOfSkynyrd Posted December 28, 2013 Share Posted December 28, 2013 (edited) Sensory is showing lte along I-8 corridor out in the Foothills of Yuma. When I pick it up I'll try to grab some engineering screens to see if it's a new tower Edited December 28, 2013 by FanOfSkynyrd Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skyh123 Posted December 28, 2013 Share Posted December 28, 2013 Haven't read all posts so sorry if this had been shared but seeing LTE starting at exit 30 in Welton wasnt there this morning when I was heading out of town Pulled 14mbps Down 4 up Sent from my SPH-L720 using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hypeo Posted December 28, 2013 Share Posted December 28, 2013 Sensory is showing lte along I-8 corridor out in the Foothills of Yuma. When I pick it up I'll try to grab some engineering screens to see if it's a new tower I mapped from I8 and 16 street all the way out to Fortuna and I8. It was from the Atlantic Ave tower that was just accepted.

Sent from my SPH-L710 using Tapatalk Yeah, was going to turn Sensorly on when I saw it but forgot that I had deleted it a few days back since the areas I typically visit around town are pretty consistent and pretty well mapped. It shut off at the dome Valley exit, and i noticed that the foothills were EVDO A for the most part, but I was pulling LTE up till the 8 1/2 E exit a few days ago, guess they have a few tweaks to the tower before lighting it up for good.

jeff4d Posted December 31, 2013 Share Posted December 31, 2013 (edited) 06E090 is not listed in my spreadsheet, and looking at my map it's probably a new site. Sensorly isn't giving any clues as to which one though. Confirmed that the newly accepted tower has the Hexadecimal ID 06E090 01/02/03 N/E/SW. I mapped Sensorly La-Canada, to River, River to Thornydale / Orange Grove - Orange Grove west from La Cholla. Signal very week out that far.

EJWagner Posted January 2, 2014 Share Posted January 2, 2014 Sorry! I've been so busy with work as its the holidays! Also a tower went live down the street from my apartments. Its off of Pantano and Golf Links. I'll go do some screen shots and stuff soon 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EJWagner Posted January 2, 2014 Share Posted January 2, 2014 My speed tests are always slow on this phone. I think its because its prepaid Virgin Mobile.

EJWagner Posted January 2, 2014 Share Posted January 2, 2014 So I tried to map out the area some note via Sensorly. Well the tower was shut off at 930 am right as I found it lol. Its a small tower next to the bus stop and in front of the CVS on the corner. Also right before it went off I pulled the best speeds at 10 mbps Sent from my LG-LS720 using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

htabbach Posted January 2, 2014 Share Posted January 2, 2014 Hello guys, I was just wondering if anyone knows if the site way easy, east of broadway and houghton is broadcasting LTE, according to Sprint CS, they are but I am only picking up a weak signal and I live about 300 years from it. How do I know on the iPhone 5S which tower I am connecting to on LTE? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks 1: Look at sensorly, you can pretty clearly see what's broadcasting. 2: The LTE Engineering link in my sig will get you into the serving cell info (hopefully) 3: Cross-reference serving cell info with info posted earlier in this thread or with the sponsor map.

TechSmurf Posted January 2, 2014 Share Posted January 2, 2014 The truncated Cell Identity (GCI) sucks, but I doubt we have GCIs for anything in that area anyway so it's not a big deal. The Physical Cell ID (PCI) is valid, however I don't see any information in this thread regarding that ID. I can't share info here gleaned from sponsor threads, so I can't confirm a whole lot for you. Drive a circle around the site you suspect it's coming from and see if you find PCIs separate from the one you've got by increments of 169 (452-169=283, 283-169=114). An RSRP better than -90 is a fairly good indicator that you're very close to the source of the signal too... or just donate to help keep S4GRU broadcasting Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
