Network Vision/LTE - Tucson/Yuma Market

[Dkoellerwx]

another friend just text me he is at Ave C and 32nd Street with 4G. Looks like the tower on Avenue A and 32nd Street is broadcasting 4G now

Yes, both are in Yuma, I couldn't pull a speedtest when I saw it, but he pulled this.

I will swing by there this afternoon for mapping and screen shots unless someone beats me to it

If it is indeed live, might be time to update that tracking sheet to include serving cell IDs and such to track the rollout!

If nothing else I can stuff that info into the comments for now.

I don't have sensorly but had 4G from 32nd and Pacific to right before 4th Ave and 24th. Ran a few speed tests and 6mbps was the highest dl I pulled

You've got the bandwidth. Install sensorly.

Im confused right now. Are we talking LTE or regular 4G?

What is regular 4G? The only "4G" Sprint has installed in the past two years is LTE. If you are referring to WiMax, they stopped deploying that in Mid 2011.

We are talking the first live LTE in the Tucson/Yuma market.

[skyh123]

I just DL sensorly so I can start mapping when out and about, but here is what I pull at the office, this speed was consistent over many tests, and is indoors. (office in Tuscany Plaza on Ave B and 28th St. In Yuma)

Confirmed lte at air station, screen shots to follow!

[skyh123]

Awesome, the speeds I am seeing are better than friends on VZW and AT&T, and no stupid Data limit to hold it down. Just DL FIFA 14 over 4G, 1.27GB and it only took 10 min, that would have been almost half of the data limit on the other networks.

Oh yes I was talking about WiMAX that's what I refer to when I say regular 4G

There could be a live site in Tucson already. Or Cochise County. Or Nogales... all a matter of finding them before Robert

 

I swear a couple days ago I thought I saw my phone pop 4G for a brief moment, but I didn't have LTE Discovery to log it... My drive home today will take me through town.. we'll see.

I mapped sensory should show up later today or tomorrow, sensory says it can take up to 24 hours to reflect. Screen shots, I'll post some in a little bit

It's beginning to show on Sensorly now!

[Ejm2420]

I have a question, does LTE signal reach as far as 3G does? Because when I went to Florida last summer it didn't seem like it

It reaches just as far, but the LTE airlink is more fragile. You need a stronger signal for it to work. You most likely not be able to use LTE at the edge of what is current 3G coverage.

Ohhhh I see I was just wondering because in the hotel room in Orlando, I would have 2 full bars of LTE and out of nowhere loose it & go to 3G? I was thinking it would maybe make sense if I had barely 1 bar of it but no I had 2
