Yesterday and this evening, I mapped the location just to the east and west of the Ina- and Oracle intersection. Today while sitting at The Frost, I captured the screenshots to share as well. So there is also a 4G track on Sensorly and also speed test.  I still suspect that the cell tower identification will be consistent with the tower at first and Glenn.  I believe that the only reason to go so far is because it is up the hill.

Nice! Hope they get one of the cell sites up here up and running, looking at you ina and cortaro! It would be nice to have it kinda close to where i live and work..

I bet if you finish mapping Orange Grove from Skyline to La Cholla you'll confirm it's a new site up.

 

I don't have a confirmed hex ID for 1st/glenn to cross reference.

No such luck to the west.  Faded before La Canada each time.  Will map more later today to paint the picture.  Still suspect line of site to Glenn tower due to the hill.   There is a cell site however at that intersection (Oracle and Ina).  Engineering  screen info should tell the story.

Based on sensorly today there's 3 things I'd do if I lived anywhere near the area:

1: Get ID for 1st/Glenn.

2: Get ID from River/Alvernon and map the area a bit better. I moderately suspect there is/was a new site broadcasting in this area.

3: Get ID from Orange Grove/Oracle and map the area a bit better. I very strongly suspect there is/was a new site broadcasting in this area.

There are many areas still without, not just SE. I think the wilmot gate has good odds of being high on the to-do list.

 

Thanks - old equip came down, new equip up and 3g accepted three months ago - Century Link has new fiber optic installed both north and east from the Wilmot site but appeared "stalled" near the Circle K on S Kolb - that appears finalized at this time - it appears those lines are headed toward the tower at S Pantano/E Irvington.

I have confirmed that there is an active LTE tower at Orange Grove and Oracle.  You were right!

 

I mapped all three sectors with screen shots of the relevant screens.  I have several more samples but this is a good start.  I mapped the heck out of the area with Sensorly too so that should show up soon.  This tower has been on for over a week.

I actually have screenshots of the LTE screen on the north west east and south sides of the tower. All three cell identifiers are shown. Here is a shot where I Sat just a hundred feet south of the tower.  I mapped Sensorly to the east all the way to Skyline. I also mapped to the north, south, and to the west

Good stuff, Jeff! :)

 

I've got a small to-do list still running if anyone's bored:

 

Tucson HTC/LG/iPhone folks: We've only got hex IDs for the new tower at OG/Oracle. If you're bored I could use 'em for the rest.

Tucson Samsung/iPhone folks: We don't have confirmed serving cell IDs for that new tower, Park/18th, or the one in Drexel.

 

Yuma Samsung/iPhone folks: We've got hex IDs for everything, but we don't have serving cell IDs for anything. Not a big deal if Hypeo is going to be the only person handling this...

 

Southeast AZ folks: I hope people are running Sensorly in Santa Cruz and Cochise County. :P

I'm in Yuma and a Samsung user, what do you need I'll try to do what I can

Lte engineering screenshots from near each active tower would allow us to better verify new towers coming online in the future. See link in my sig.

      Dish Network/Boost Mobile cell/5G buildout thread

      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.
