Highlighting new accepted sites


Feech

Recommended Posts

If this is a pain someone tell me.  It would be nice if while doing the weekly site acceptance reports if somehow this sites were marked on the map in a way that would draw attention to them.   In my market for example if we get 1 or 2 accepted sites its difficult to discern where the one went live.  Is this possible without a lot of effort?  I'm sure other people would like it.  Then once Robert does the big weekly map update, those accepted during the week would be unhighlighted

It would involve much more work than the current map updates are, and they already take hours each. 

 

Also, there isn't one "big weekly update" anymore. The maps are updated with each near-daily update, so removing said highlighted points would involve going back through everything and unmarking them. 

 

It would nice to see, but it's just unfeasible.

No doubt about the script and lord knows that I hate to ask for more than what he does but as an area fills out it gets nearly impossible to keep up with.  I have just started to just look at the sites that are important to me..

I been thinking about it since I have the same problem identifying sites, probably the solution is using excel and some formulas with vlookup to separate data. you would need the master database, already updated sites data and the daily updates to merge into one report sheet and have it ready to upload.

 

Time consuming but manageable.

This has been asked before...repeatedly.  We will not be doing that.  Besides, half the fun is finding them.  ;)

 

Take screen shots if that's important to you.   :twitch:

Topdown has one market, I have 99.  I'm serious as a heart attack...I'm not doing this.  No way, no how.  I love my wife and kids too much.  I'm sitting here at 11:15 PM just trying to update the maps and the Market Acceptance thread before I go to bed, and then I have to get up at 4:30 AM to get ready for a meeting at the Capitol.  I am not looking to take on more work.

    • I think the push for them is adding US Mobile as a MVNO with a priority data plan.  Ultimately, making people more aware of priority would allow them (and other carriers) to differentiate themselves from MVNOs like Consumer Cellular that advertise the same coverage. n77 has dramatically reduced the need for priority service at Verizon where the mere functioning of your phone was in jeopardy a couple of years ago if you had a low priority plan like Red Pocket. Only have heard of problems with T-Mobile in parts of Los Angeles. AT&T fell in between. All had issues at large concerts and festivals, or sporting events if your carrier has no on-site rights. Edit: Dishes native 5g network has different issues: not enough sites, limited bandwidth. Higher priority would help a few. Truth is they can push phones to AT&T or T-Mobile.
    • Tracfone AT&T sims went from QCI 8 to 9 as well a couple years ago. I'm pretty neutral towards AT&T's turbo feature here, the only bad taste left was for those who had unadvertised QCI 7 a couple months ago moved down to 8. In my eyes it would have been a lot better for AT&T to include turbo in those Premium/Elite plans for free to keep them at QCI 7, while also introducing this turbo add on option for any other plans or devices. As it stands now only a handful of plans can add it, and only if you're using a device on a random list of devices AT&T considers to be 5G smartphones.
    • My Red Pocket AT&T GSMA account was dropped to QCI 9 about a year ago.  Most recently 8 for the last few years prior.  Voice remains at 5.

Based on how I was treated with my Credit Limit, it's definitely not the same company it was before the merger, and it's entirely possible they'd try it.
