Verizon just turned on their LTE towers today.. Luck them..

 

on another news. I was talking to one of my buddies who is friends with the owner of BeamSpeed here and he assured him that sprint will not get 4G soon because he owns all the frequencies that they need to light it up, and he has not been contacted by them yet.

 

I wonder how valid this is.

Hmm, is this suburban Yuma or the transistor topology of an ARM processor?     AJ

He owns all the frequencies? What kind of crap is that? He owns Sprint's spectrum? Not true. Maybe he is speaking of microwave, but there will be no MW backhaul or very little in this market.

That does not sound valid. No offense I know the beamspeed guy is your friend, but beamspeed is full of it and has been since their inception. It's sad that they charge $70 dollars for "broadband" internet that barely gets 1mb down. I've seen some of the spectrum that beamspeed owns and it seems to be in the 900mhz range and I think that is what they use for their current services. Maybe he was talking about wimax?

none taken, the guy is not my friend; i just know someone that is and that is what they told him.

 

i havent taken the time to see what he really owns, but my understanding with NV is that Sprint is deploying 4G on what thet already own. Robert might clarify this one he reads it or maybe one of the other members will.

That was my understanding and what I was trying to make sense to my buddy who was upset with Sprint after he was told that. I did make sure to refer him to this website to get things straight. :-) Thanx for chiming in Robert...

 

 

and yes, he does own lots of microwave.

The site network.sprint.com does not show Network Vision upgrades. They only show 3G/voice maintenance upgrades handled by Ericsson under their nationwide network maintenance contract. These are temporary upgrades to help provide some incremental improvements prior to Network Vision starting.

 

Network Vision should arrive in the Tucson/Yuma market some time this Winter. But it will take 6-8 months to complete 100%.

LOL, Robert, remember where we live man!!! we only get one month (if that) of winter..

Just saw a construction crew working on a tower on 32nd street and Ave A, I didn't have the time to turn around to talk to them and see what carrier they are working for. Hopefully they are still there tomorrow so I can stop by.

My buddy's that are on Verizon have been quick to point out their LTE service...hopefully we get some concrete proof that Sprint LTE deployment is ongoing in Yuma.

 

I don't think any deployment is going on in Yuma. If anything just capacity upgrades and speed upgrades.

Yeah thats what I'm thinking, I know there was unconfirmed word that Yuma LTE deployment (along with Phoenix/Tucson) was bumped up early to this winter/spring.

 

I was holding out hope...guess I still am.

Ok, so maybe some light at the end of the tunel.

 

I just got a text from my contact that works for City of Yuma and told me that he just reviewed Simin Network Vision project permits last week. The city permits are valid for one year so hopefully they will start work here soon..

 

the permit included multi mode antenna, new battery cabinet and distribution cabinet, new fiber optic cables and and new RRH's, new combiners.

No the one on Ave B is not a new tower. The new tower is located down by Somerton Ave and CO 11 1/2 street. and it does have the new panels on it.

 

and as far as the phone, my best advice would be to play with both phones you like, even the GS3 and make your decision. all I gots to say is that I really like my Evo

      Network Vision/LTE - New York City Market

      By Paynefanbro · Posted

      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.

      At some point over the weekend, T-Mobile bumped the Omaha metro from 100+40 to 100+90 of n41! That's a pretty large increase from what we had just a few weeks ago when we were sitting at 80+40Mhz. Out of curiosity, tested a site on my way to work and pulled 1.4Gpbs. That's the fastest I've ever gotten on T-Mobile! For those that know Omaha, this was on Dodge street in Midtown so not exactly a quiet area!

      Did you mean a different site? eNB ID 112039 has been around for years. Streetview even has it with C-band back in 2022 - https://www.google.com/maps/@40.7303042,-73.9610924,3a,24.1y,18.03h,109.66t/data=!3m8!1e1!3m6!1s2ossx06yU56AYOzREdcK-g!2e0!5s20220201T000000!6shttps:%2F%2Fstreetviewpixels-pa.googleapis.com%2Fv1%2Fthumbnail%3Fpanoid%3D2ossx06yU56AYOzREdcK-g%26cb_client%3Dmaps_sv.share%26w%3D900%26h%3D600%26yaw%3D18.027734930682684%26pitch%3D-19.664180274382204%26thumbfov%3D90!7i16384!8i8192?coh=205410&entry=ttu Meanwhile, Verizon's eNB 84484 in Fort Greene has been updated to include C-band and CBRS, but not mmWave. I've seen this a few times now on updated Verizon sites where it's just the CBRS antenna on its own, not in a shroud and without mmWave. Odd.
