How accurate is the ucv network vision progress map? How often is it updated?

 

I assume you're referencing my map, if so, as accurate can be with the information that can be found online. Updated every other day.

Yeah. The towers that are marked unknown does that mean that no info was found or the city said there has been no request?

 

No available information that I could easily find (aka not online) or nothing applied, yet.

I downloaded the Weather Bug app today which is almost 8mb while I was at the Sacramento Softball Complex of Watt and 80. The app took 50 minutes to download. Pretty terrible service there. Also while driving from North Highlands to Rocklin I didn't pick up any LTE on Sensorly in places I had the day before.

Yeah orangevale. I'll be home tonight and I'll post some. I drove by yesterday there was no boomlift so they should start work any day now :)

 

Sounds about right. Practically every Orangevale cell site has had permits issued. Good job on looking up and forward at the same time. :)

Awesome, that's what I thought they were. This one is on the border of Antelope and North Highlands. On Blackfoot right off of Watt. I was laughing at my girlfriend because she never once saw 4g on her Evo Shift here and now that I found this cell site with wimax, she switched to the LTE.

What is this. It is very unclear. I'm on the Tapatalk app. Do I need to go take pictures. This is down the street.

Awesome. I always turn to look at it when I leave in the morning to see if there's any work being done on it. I'll keep an eye on it too. There was no work being done on the other Citrus Heights tower last week. Will pass by this week to check again.

No need to yet. It's in the earliest stage of application and not issued yet so work can't begin. Just thought I'd let you know. :)

I always look anyways :) . I look at that one, the one on Walerga between Elverta and Antelope, the one at Roseville Rd and Antelope, and that one on Lichen. I pass by all them almost daily.

Haha yeah. There's 2 additional cell sites in Antelope but whose information and address I cannot find. One is a no address parcel on elverta road right next to Antelope Greens Golf Course and the other is somewhere in the vicinity of Antelope High School (the walerga one). I cannot for my life figure out an address for them and so cannot check if they're in progress permit wise. :(

The first on is the one that's out in the middle of nowhere behind the Food Maxx right? I think the other one is in the apartments right after the Little Caesars. Any way to find their address?

Ya that's the one. The second one I don't think is by the apartments as that one appears to be more like an ATT setup. I saw a giant fat white monopole by the Fire Station next to the park which I think is a stealth site and could be the spot where Sprint be co-located on. Parcel is a park which I cannot search for permit information... :(

I thought it was the one by the apartments since that's where the recent network enhacements website from sprint points to. I haven't been down that way too often so I don't know exactly where any other ones are.

It could be the one in the apartment or the one by the fire station but I don't know without better images of the one by the apartments. Not to mention, nothing shows up when I search the apartment parcel...

So either way, finding permit info will still be hard/impossible?

If it's the one on the park then I've no clue. If it's the one by the apartments then it must be under a different address from the one they have on the county parcel viewer. =\

 

edit: yep, just checked the apartment complex for permit information and the tower there is leased to ATT. Guess the sprint cell site is the stealth monopole by the fire station on the public park.

Link leads to error, but looking it up on antenna search the ones at the apartments came up as ATT and Cingular so yeah, It's probably at the fire station.

      Kind of amazing that T-Mobile is still holding onto that speed title despite Verizon all but killing off lowband 5G on their network. While Verizon is mostly being evaluated on mmWave and C-band performance, T-Mobile and AT&T's average 5G speeds include their massive lowband 5G networks that are significantly slower.

      Yup. Very true. We were originally on an Everything Data 1500 Plan, which got Unlimited Minutes thanks to Marcelo's "Loyalty Benefits" offer. We then switched to Unlimited Freedom (with the Free HD add-on that Sprint originally wanted $20/month per line for.... remember that?) because the pricing was better with "iPhone for Life", vs. the "Loyalty Credit" for staying on a Legacy Plan. After that, I ran the numbers and switched us over to Sprint MAX, especially for the international travel benefits. There's absolutely no reason for us to switch to Go5G Plus or Go5G Next if we're going to do BYOD by purchasing from Apple/Samsung/Google directly as we've been doing. These new plans aren't priced for current customers to switch to. They're priced for new customers, where they throw in a free line, etc. It's gone from "Uncarrier" to "Carrier". What a shame.

      Strange business model that they keep around all these pricing plans. 1000s of plans per carrier is reportedly not uncommon.  Training customer support must be a nightmare. Even MVNOs have legacy plans. A downside of their contract mentality I guess. Best to change contracts during a recession. But then all carriers try to squeeze out legacy plan benefits as they grow old.

      Everything "Uncarrier" is becoming "Carrier" again. Because of the Credit Limit that T-Mobile put on our account for no reason at all (and wouldn't change/update the last time I checked all the way up to the CEO), I don't plan on buying/upgrading our iPhones through T-Mobile. I'm going through Apple directly. Looks like I'll be going through Google and Samsung directly for our other lines for upgrades. Also, we're staying on Sprint Max given the ridiculous pricing for Go5G Plus. On Sprint Max, we currently pay for our Plan: $260 for 7 Voice Lines $25 for two Wearable Lines. (One is $10/Month. The other is $15/Month because the AutoPay discount only applies up to 8 lines.) Total: $285/Month vs. Go5G Plus (Per the Broadband Facts "nutrition label" on the T-Mobile Website): https://www.t-mobile.com/commerce/cell-phone-plans $360 - ($5 AutoPay Discount x 7 Voice Lines) = $325 The Watch Plans show as either $12/Month or $15/Month: https://www.t-mobile.com/cell-phone-plans/affordable-data-plans/smartwatches So this is about the same for the wearables as what we're paying now. Overall, it's quite more than we're paying now to switch plans. Ridiculous....
