Great find!!!! Its nice to hear another major wholesale customer in Cricket to sign up for LTE service. If MetroPCS can just sign up for a wholesale LTE deal, that would be great as well as the former Lightsquared customers.

 

I just hope that Clearwire is making good progress with China Mobile to develop the TD-LTE standard.

I hope we see some momentum from this for the ex-LS2 customers. I am still very afraid of how Clearwire will fare starting June 2012 to June 2013. That is going to be a huge loss of revenue for Clearwire. I know a lot of EVO customers will jump ship to LTE service and any 3G customer will jump to 4G LTE phones. I know that if I were a EVO customer from 2010, I would jump ship to the LTE phones come June.

Some more news on Clearwires deal with LEAP. Also, Clearwire is in negotiations with Metro PCS and has a deal with C-Spire.

I don't think C-spire has signed up with Clearwire yet. If you read the article again in the section quoted below, only 2 ex-LS2 customers in MVNE Simplexity and FreedomPop have signed wholesale deals with Clearwire. The article was just mentioning other LS2 customers, C-Spire and SI Wireless, could be of interest to Clearwire.

 

"Still, Clearwire has already announced two agreements with companies that had signed deals with LightSquared: MVNE Simplexity and FreedomPop, which aims to provide mobile broadband on a freemium model. Other companies that signed deals with LightSquared include C Spire Wireless and rural carrier SI Wireless."

What's sad is their stock can't catch a break...even with news of lightsquared customers defecting to them and lightsquared being about done itself you would think the stock would see a lil life.

It was up on the new customer deal but then the next day retraced about all of the move...someone is evidently sitting heavy on this thing...

      Network Vision/LTE - New York City Market

      By Paynefanbro · Posted

      Was in Red Hook again and I swear there are more Link5G sites as there are Verizon, T-Mobile, and AT&T small cells combined in the entire neighborhood. It seemed like every other street I turned down had one installed. Hopefully carriers will start hopping on them soon. Seems like a lot of effort to go through for no one to use them.  — — — — — T-Mobile converted the Sprint site on top of NYU Langone Brooklyn in Sunset Park. I first mapped one sector of it back in November 2023 but I thought it was a small cell so I never pinned it but I ran into another sector today which caught me off guard. I'm unable to find a permit for the conversion so it's definitely a surprise. There's another T-Mobile site 1 block away that T-Mobile initially installed back in 2019 so I'm kinda surprised they're keeping both considering the Sprint conversion is on a much taller building and could potentially provide much better coverage to the entire area.  — — — — — The old permit expired for this site without any work being done but a new permit was just approved a few days ago for a T-Mobile site at this address. Description mentions 3 antennas with 2 RRUs per sector. My guess is they're doing something similar to what they did at 360 Furman St in Brooklyn where they broadcast Band 2/66 and n25/41 from one antenna. It's a bit of a downgrade considering the site it's replacing was a full build with Ericsson 6449s.

      Came across another Crown Castle Solutions multi-tenant oDAS node in Brooklyn. Located at 40.7002286, -73.9612666. Nothing on T-Mobile or AT&T so I'm assuming these are all Verizon nodes that Crown Castle is anticipating another carrier will hop on down the line.
