Sprint finally add band 41 3 carrier at christana mall site . It was a Clearwire site decommissioned and now 8tr8. Band 41 only no 25 or 26. This sites way pass due . 

 

Well they still need to add the other two bands

Finally! They still should add 25/26 for I-95 capacity. Verizon added onto this site in December 2014. AT&T has been there for ages.

What's annoying is Spring actually HAD panels here until ~2006. T-Mobile had panels here until ~2012. It also looks like T-Mobile recently added panels back to this site in the last few months? I didn't get a good look last time I was there, but there are definitely 4 racks again.

On a completely unrelated note the Blackiston DE site is still 3G only 6 years later....

Update site has 3 band 41 carriers, 10x10 band 25 and 5x5 band 26. It's one of new panels all integrated now.

dont know been months since I went there .

I want to get a prepaid phone and check it out. I’m really curious. Even T-Mobile doesn’t have contiguous LTE service there.

T-mobile is bad on the whole Delmarva save main roads get off the beaten path and T-mobile is for the most part not usable.

Oh that’s a given my friend. That’s why I switched to AT&T as my main carrier and police mobile as my back up.

My friend raves about T-Mobile in DE. He would get LTE down to Felton without issue, never drops to 4G. Fast around the air force base, and seems to have good coverage even out in farm country. 

From personal experience, T-Mobile has been killing Sprint in Delaware for years.
