timestamp="1390415326"]Im not sure if Im doing this right. 

This is the tower on the corner of McClain and National road in Lima. 

How can I even tell if it is a Sprint tower? 

I wanna help the community but not sure how to.  :td:

There should be two rrus ones for 1900 and the other is for 800. From what i can tell thats a in progress site. Heres a link to map of towers in Ohio http://s4gru.com/index.php?/topic/4462-network-vision-site-map-toledo-market-separated-from-ohio-markets/

Thanks for the response keelerman!

Newbie question..... what does "There should be two rrus ones for 1900 and the other is for 800." mean. 

I googled rru and figured out what that is (Im guessing what you circled in the picture).

What does the 1900 and 800 represent tho?

 

Edit: Disregard. I found my answer. 

For anyone else that needs an explanation here is a good link:

1900 and 800 is the frequency of what is being put out. 1900 is what they are using right now for LTE, 800 cdma (voice) and 800 on LTE will also be coming soon as well. The lower the frequency the further the signal will travel and penetrate. We are also going to be getting LTE on 2500, but that's a little down the road, should help with capacity issues if/when it happens and will bring faster speeds as well.

Just received a message from sprint, telling me that within the next month network upgrades should be complete! I live in Maumee.

 

SprintFreeMsg: Over the next month, the new network will be largely completed in your area. See new phone offer at http://sprint.us/upgrade1 Reply S to stop.

Yea, this is a generic text that is being sent to people all over the US. Nothing to get excited over unfortunately.

Guessing could be same tower but hoping to get it mapped exactly. Because that's not far from home haha

I've been noticing alotbof speed tests that say 4G, also makes me wonder if they were testing before like in Nov, because I seen one in port clintion area like that. Maybe it didn't pass inspections or somthing. I think it's only going to get better from here on out

I picked up LTE right off of the Oregon Rd ramp but lost it as I turned on Oregon Road toward Owens. I didn't get another signal until I got on 795. Has LTE for maybe a quarter of a mile around East Broadway and managed to grab this screen shot. Was also running Sensory.

There is tower to the West of Owens on lime city road, that's prob why it was hit and miss..if I rember right when I went to Owens I was connectioning to that tower. There is also anotherone over on andrus road between Tracy and Broadway. with towers like that the cell spacing is going to be shorter so your not going to have it has far as some would think, but once the rest of them are done than it should be better. Just an fyi for you and anyone else. :tu:

    • Its crazy what MM wave is capable of in ideal conditions. I took advantage of some overnight work this week to do some testing on my way home.  https://imgur.com/a/zPNUWVs
    • I haven't had the opportunity to test or map Dish here in NYC but they have tons of sites. I'm fairly certain that at this point they have contiguous coverage across the city, and in some places they likely have better coverage than the incumbents. I still think their weird split branding and lack of advertising is what's killing them, not the network.  I have no idea what they were thinking by launching a sub-brand for people to beta test their network and then another sub-brand specifically for postpaid service, and not even with the guarantee that it uses their network. They need to get rid of everything and start with a clean slate.
    • Drove the entire 101 out on the Olympic Peninsula over the weekend and was able to map a number of TMO sites which weren't previously mapped. Also, did it in my Mach E (electric car). The Tesla Superchargers (especially the one in Forks, WA) made the whole trip SUPER easy.
    • Ok so I signed up for service through Boost Infinite, I ended up getting the Motorola Razr got it today.  They sent the rainbow SIM 2.0 card.  Activation was a breeze, connected to Dish's native network (n70 and n71), took the phone out and... IMPRESSED with their network!  Getting 200 to 300Mbps over n70 and around 50 to 60 on n71 no coverage drops!  Gosh I hope Dish can get it together, VoNR was crystal clear as well.  Paying $25.00 a month for the Infinite plan and $10.00 for the Moto Razr.  Amazing deal... will do more testing this evening when I get more time.  But so far from what I'm seeing Dish needs to stay in the fight. Just rebrand off of damn Boost and call it Dish Wireless...
