ryman101 Posted November 16, 2014 Share Posted November 16, 2014 Glad to hear speeds are getting even faster..still waiting for some lte in the victor farmington area..any idea if its ever going to happen ? Once you head away from the more heavily populated areas, I would guess most of the sites don't have the appropriate backhaul for LTE and won't be completed for a while yet. I'm not sure what kind of priority these sites have for Sprint, but I know they will get LTE eventually. I am in the same boat as you, just waiting for the sites near me to get appropriate backhaul.

S4GRU Posted November 17, 2014 Author Share Posted November 17, 2014 I just hope it sticks and the capacity stays solid once it becomes more crowded.That's the beauty of Band 41. They can just keep adding more and more LTE carriers for capacity because they have so much spectrum. A luxury that no other provider can do in the U.S. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darkvibe Posted November 21, 2014 Share Posted November 21, 2014 I noticed LTE 2500 near the corner of Main St. and University and also on and off driving down University. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ryman101 Posted November 22, 2014 Share Posted November 22, 2014 hi what is a good app to use to check the band and the mhz?thank youI really like signal check pro, but it's not free. Totally worth it though, you can set it to show proper dBm signal strengths static in the notification bar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joshnys8913 Posted December 9, 2014 Share Posted December 9, 2014 Its good news to see B26 but I would rather see LTE first on all towers, my personal opinion. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikegerard Posted December 17, 2014 Share Posted December 17, 2014 Here is a new tower going up on Bay Road. It is the only tower that shows up as 3g on the east side of town. This may be a dumb question but why build a new tower right next to an old one? Why not just use the old one? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This may be a dumb question but why build a new tower right next to an old one? Why not just use the old one? It could be the old tower is not structurally able to hold all the new equipment the cell phone companies have. That may not be the reason but I could probably give you a better answer on this, I know some people up near Webster (area) that could find out. I live out here in Canandaigua and they did the same thing for someone else (another carrier) but it was a stupid idea that I wont get into on here. Also could be a carrier is moving to the new tower for more height. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mr nyjet Posted December 18, 2014 Share Posted December 18, 2014 my hilton neighbor went to best buy to get $39 prepaid sprint lg tribute lte /spark phone. website shows lte coverage in both village and town. however, when best buy tried to activate phone with her address and zip code, the message came back thst lte is unavailable. so, the website says one thing, but tech support says the exact opposite. no wonder crurn is up so much.

This doesnt really belong in this forum, more belongs in the T-mobile discussion, but since its related to the area then I guess thats fine, but Sprint is working on full build sites first (mainly) for LTE then GMO, which Victor is GMO area (except for the mall area). I cant get into any more detail on this forum, but if you want to follow and see the maps, you can donate to the site and get access to that!!
