Would like to confirm an upgraded tower

[Mobilesolutions]

I found a Tower in Bixby Ok today that appears to be upgraded. If i can confirm that this is a Sprint site that will make it the first tower that i have seen with an upgrade from Sprint in the area.

I took a picture of the tower (base station is surrounded by large privacy fence). It is located no more than 2 football fields from a Sprint store.

 

The location of the Tower is near E 106th St in Bixby. Just off Memorial.

 

Standing near the tower i was able to get speeds of 1.7Mb down and 0.8 up ( that is insane for Sprint around tulsa)

 

Hopefully you guys can help me confirm that this is a Sprint tower!

That looks pretty close LOL. I'm guessing the cases are in closed around that privacy fence

That's SO weird NONE of the towers here are hidden behind a fence like that. It's completely meddle

If I had to guess I would say the bottom rack is sprint (no upgrades yet). Hard to tell for sure on my phone.

Most of the towers with NV here have the old 3G building still. That looks like 4G to me. I know Verizons 4G lte looks the same

If this is in fact a Sprint site, I do not see any NV equipment on this tower.

It's probably a Verizon 4G lte tower.

this is a old nextel, Current 4G verizon tower. They just completely did the 4G over the summer or verizon, It's like 100 ft away from me lol

I see US Cellular (I think) panels. They are quite fat and stubby looking but they have no RRUs or under panel cabling. I also have seen a number of sites that look like this one around broken arrow and gotten excited but the key is no RRUs so it is probably a US Cellular site that might have Sprint collocated on the same site.

 

Edit: My reasoning for calling them US Cellular panels is that they are new, US Cellular had to add new 700Mhz panels for their LTE network which went live a few months ago, and US Cellular doesn't use RRUs (which these panels do not have).

If you're going to be a grammar nazi, at least do it correctly.
