Crickets? Check out the Baltimore thread. :P

 

The cricket is dead over there. Just swept him into the dustpan.

The retuned around Herndon, you will notice some new points going thru a neighborhood that I did on Sensorly. Soon as I step outside the door at home. 4g symbol lights up.

Sensorly is showing some very HOT LTE to the NW of Dulles airport on Old Ox Rd. Looks like some new LTE there.

I'll take a little drive sometime next weekend to map out the area to see how it is. Weird work schedule this week and last.

Has anyone ever gotten an LG Viper with the latest ICS update (or without it for that matter) to get an LTE connection in this area? I live right near Dulles and drove down old ox today without a peep of a LG Signal on the phone or sensorly.

Days pass and nothing no new LTE suburbs 3G slow as hell lets see when they start here

 

They've already started, and have been for months. In fact, if you look at Sensorly, you can even see fleeting glimpses of LTE in Rockville, MD.You probably also have a bunch of 3G upgrades in your own neck of the woods. Rockville is probably a lot easier to get backhaul in than out there (but still DC market) places like Purcellville.

Was it up? And is it LTE? That would be nice. Especially for testing LTE under pressure.

 

I saw at least four AT&T COWs along with Verizon (walked around the mall yesterday afternoon before lockdown).... I guess Sprint was trying to hide them from me.

    • 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)
