Deval Posted April 17, 2013 Share Posted April 17, 2013 Welcome to my world. I walk the streets now looking at panels and trying to figure out who's on that site. My girlfriend thinks I'm weird. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My girlfriend thinks I'm weird. Do not worry. Just keep going down this path. Soon enough, you will no longer have a job nor a girlfriend who thinks you are weird. Then, you can walk the streets looking at panels full time. AJ 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevero Posted April 17, 2013 Share Posted April 17, 2013 When my GF finds me messing with her phone she just assumes that I'm checking signal/technical stuff. I think I should be offended by this?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would have never noticed the shape of texas if you didn't mention it. LOL 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think I should be offended by this?! Hmm, interesting. I guess if you are a jealous boyfriend, you should become or pretend to be a wireless signal nerd. Then, you can check her handset for illicit SMS, and she will think that you are just geeking on the engineering screens. AJ 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the words of Linda Richmand "I'm feeling a little verklempt" after looking at that picture. kckid, it does reminds me of a song: "Some may boast of prowess bold, of the school they think so grand..." 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jim Gaffigan: Explaining things to my kids makes me realize how little I know. Recently, my son pointed to an antenna and said, "Look, Daddy, a stick!" I said, "Actually, that's an antenna." "What's an antenna?" "It's a stick, a silver stick." AJ 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jefbal99 Posted April 17, 2013 Share Posted April 17, 2013 Jim Gaffigan: AJ My 4yr old boy asks me about what the towers do and I explain it to him the best I can that I understand and a 4yr old can comprehend. It is tough finding 14 different ways to say the same thing because his next question is always, "Why?" 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deval Posted April 17, 2013 Share Posted April 17, 2013 my girlfriend thinks im nuts. And a nerd Oh yeah, that's normal. We'll be walking down the street sometimes holding hands, and I'll be looking at a building, and pointing out sites to her. That's a Sprint site, you can see the radio heads on the back of the panels. That appears to be a Clearwire site, you can see the little white dome which is for microwave.

iansltx Posted April 17, 2013 Share Posted April 17, 2013 The rest of my family tends to humor me, even occasionally pointing out cell sites on road trips. Then again, I'm the reason they're saving a fair chunk of change on cellular service...and still get LTE 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MacinJosh Posted April 17, 2013 Share Posted April 17, 2013 I get made fun of by the people I live with. They tease me for being a wireless nerd. Sent from Josh's iPhone 5 using Tapatalk 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
d_rail34 Posted April 17, 2013 Share Posted April 17, 2013 I've only been a member of this site for a short time, and my wife is pretty much over the whole thing. All she keeps telling me now is, "I'm so sick of hearing about LTE this and LTE that." ...and, "I'll be so glad when you get that damn phone." Needless to say...this site is addictive! And I'll never look at a cell tower the same again. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaixor Posted April 17, 2013 Share Posted April 17, 2013 I still can't recognize who is on any given site though at least I can spot them much better than before! That count for something right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
