Network Vision/LTE - Delaware market (including Wilmington, Dover, Laurel and Elkton MD)

 Site at Rt4 And Rt72 is a full build. But the Nextel antennas are still in place.

 

The active LTE site still has the Nextel antennas in place. Several sites around Dover still have Nextel equipment in place too. There might be one that has had them removed. They don't seem to be in a hurry around here to remove it. However I am noticing more and more NV sites where they have removed the Sprint legacy equipment.

Hard to say people have found full build's all over the place,maybe we will wake up one morning and they will all be live but I am not going to hold my breath.

 

In Kent county almost all the sites are full builds, I really expected more GMOs. A few of them I have recently learned have fiber within maybe 200 feet of them. There potentially could be many LTE sites in Delaware in a short manner of time...

I believe the black water tower in Middletown is also a full build and did not see any Nextel antennas.

It's been a while since I have been there. I just remember a lot of antenna. It might be one of the ugliest water towers out there. I'll need to check it out again.

anybody notice 1 bar lte by the mall, somebody report on senorly. need confirm this.

 

 

It has showed up on Sensorly. Could be bleed over from the site on Kirkwood highway maybe.

 

 

Kind far . And no lte on route 4 .

 

Tough to say. There are 3 towers that are closer, but its not unusual for the LTE signals to travel.

That was me Friday night...I was cycling airplane mode while heading over the new flyover ramp.  My Note 2 eventually picked it up for a short stretch.

Glassco park tower lte on and old baltimore pike tower lte on. Map on senorly. More mapping tommorow . Got 22 download at park.

 

Nice find, I wonder if it will be in the next acceptance reports! Get a screen shot of the speed test and the engineering screen.

    • Unable to confirm if it's really off but I noticed this morning that I'm no longer connecting to Band 41 on my home site. Switching my phone to LTE-only pretty much always put me on Band 41 since it was the least used band on T-Mobile's network. Now I'm only able to connect to Band 2/66. Not complaining because it means speeds are faster on LTE and maybe 150MHz n41 is around the corner.

    • 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.
