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:

IMAG0003_1.jpgHere is what your looking for, sorry I couldnt upload it here, but I circled it..

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:

      T-Mobile to acquire UScellular

      By iansltx · Posted

      A heavy n41 overlay as an acquisition condition would be a win for customers, and eventually a win for T-Mobile as that might be enough to preclude VZW/AT&T adding C-Band for FWA due to spreading the market too thinly (which means T-Mobile would just have local WISPs/wireline ISPs as competition). USCC spacing (which is likely for contiguous 700 MHz LTE coverage in rural areas) isn't going to be enough for contiguous n41 anyway, and I doubt they'll densify enough to get there.

      Dish Network/Boost Mobile cell/5G buildout thread

      By iansltx · Posted

      Boost Infinite with a rainbow SIM (you can get it SIM-only) is the cheapest way, at $25/mo, to my knowledge; the cheaper Boost Mobile plans don't run on Dish native. Check Phonescoop for n70 support on a given phone; the Moto G 5G from last year may be the cheapest unlocked phone with n70 though data speeds aren't as good as something with an X70 or better modem.

      Official Tmobile-Sprint merger discussion thread

      By iansltx · Posted

      Continuing the USCC discussion, if T-Mobile does a full equipment swap at all of USCC's sites, which they probably will for vendor consistency, and if they include 2.5 on all of those sites, which they probably will as they definitely have economies of scale on the base stations, that'll represent a massive capacity increase in those areas over what USCC had, and maybe a coverage increase since n71 will get deployed everywhere and B71 will get deployed any time T-Mobile has at least 25x25, and maybe where they have 20x20. Assuming this deal goes through (I'm betting it does), I figure I'll see contiguous coverage in the area of southern IL where I was attempting to roam on USCC the last time I was there, though it might be late next year before that switchover happens.

      Forgot to post this, but a few weeks ago I got to visit these small cells myself! They're spread around Grant park and the surrounding areas, but unfortunately none of the mmwave cells made it outside of the parks along the lake into the rest of downtown. I did spot some n41 small cells around downtown, but they seemed to be older deployments limited to 100mhz and performed poorly.

      What is the cheapest way to try Dish's wireless network?  Over the past year I've seen them add their equipment to just about every cell site here, I'm assuming just go through Boost's website?  What phones are Dish native?
