Current & Coming Soon Sprint Communities - LTE Status

Recommended Posts

Not sure if this is considered official or not, but on 8/14/2013 I got a text message from SprintFreeMsg (6772) that read: Rochester, we're building you an all-new- network! See how this affects your service at http://sprint.us/rnr

 

Does that mean that the Rochester Market is now technically "coming soon"?

 

I got one of those to.. after they got LTE up in a city 100 miles away..

Evansville Indiana?

What about it?

 

So many of our members and their local markets are like this Jim Gaffigan stand up bit:

 

Have you ever had somebody not ask for directions but demand them. You're just walking down the street, you hear a horn -- some guy's like, 'Holland Tunnel!' You know, like you were supposed to fax this guy directions; suddenly, you're wasting his time. 'Let's go, buddy -- Holland Tunnel!'

"Evansville, IN?!"

 

To paraphrase Bill Simmons, "Yup, those are our readers."

Just saying Evansville is now a 4G city. Just thought I would throw it out there. General information sharing in case someone didn't know.

I see. Well, if that's the case, then someone should map it on Sensorly. Until that happens, I can't mark it.

 

"Sensorly or it didn't happen."

I know you can find humor in anything but I really was just trying to be helpful not demanding. Sorry if I came across any other way

If I was in the area at the moment I would get right to mapping. It was mentioned in the West Kentucky market thread but I saw the acceptance report too

Acceptance doesn't mean it is fired up though so that's what the Sensorly or didn't happen quote/comment is about.

No, you are fine.  As you said later, you were just sharing info, and I saw that in your follow up posts.  But I think that David and I both suspected the same thing from your initial post.  Many of our members come into The Forums, want to know why their particular markets have no updated info, then get perturbed.

It's all good fella's, I understand. I wasn't aware the sensorly map's were used as part of that list. I thought there was some other inside info I might not be aware of.

:)

 

I could see where you could think that. This map is based off of ground reports, rather than acceptance reports. That way we have places where LTE is live listed, rather than places where it could be live.

 

That's what the NV Sites map is for :tu:

Anyone know when Lynchburg,VA will be getting LTE...... new here and I have tried to find ANY info on my city and so far I have had no luck! Thanks in advance for any help.

Sprint does not have their own service in Lynchburg. Sprint service is provided by nTelos. nTelos is inly beginning LTE deployment. I would guess it will be 6 months to a year minimum.

    • Checked just now and found a 56MB GP System update pending...will follow up after install.    Edit:  Confirmed that this one moved from August to September 1 after updating.
    • Are you sure that's Direct to Cell? That sounds like the 911 center was offline and they got brought back online via a Starlink uplink. Which also makes way more sense than Direct to Cell for that area.

    • February is always closer than you think! https://stadiumtechreport.com/news/caesars-superdome-gets-matsing-deployment-ahead-of-super-bowl-lix/ Another Super Bowl, another MatSing cellular antenna deployment. Caesars Superdome, home of the NFL’s New Orleans Saints, has deployed a large number of cellular antennas from MatSing as part of an effort to increase wireless network capacity ahead of the upcoming Super Bowl LIX in February, 2025. It is the third such deployment of MatSing equipment at Super Bowl venues in as many years, following cellular upgrades at Allegiant Stadium for Super Bowl LVIII and at State Farm Stadium for Super Bowl LVII. According to the Saints, the MatSing antennas were part of a large wireless overhaul this offseason, done primarily “to satisfy fans’ desires for wireless consumption and bandwidth,” an important thing with Super Bowl LIX coming to the venue on Feb. 9, 2025. Each year, the NFL’s big game regularly sets records for wireless data consumption, with a steady upward progression ever since wireless networks were first put into stadiums. https://www.neworleanssaints.com/news/caesars-superdome-transformation-2024-new-orleans-saints-nfl-season-part-1-wifi-upgrades-wireless-cellular During the offseason renovation project, the foundation of the facility's new Distributed Antenna System (DAS) was the installation of 16 multi-beam, wideband spherical lense antennas that are seven feet in diameter and weigh nearly 600 pounds apiece, a model called the MatSing MS-48H180. Another 16 large antenna spheres of varying sizes and frequencies have also been installed for a total of 32 new large antennas, in addition to 200 cellular antennas inside and around the building, all of these products specifically made for high-density environments such as stadiums and arenas. The DAS system's performance is expected to enhance further as it becomes fully integrated throughout the season. The MatSing MS-48H180 devices, with a black color that matches the Caesars Superdome's roof, each were individually raised by hoist machines to the top of the facility and bolted into place. Each cellular antenna then transmits 48 different beams and signals to a specific area in the stadium, with each sphere angled differently to specifically target different coverage areas, allowing increased, consistent coverage for high-density seating areas. In addition to creating targets in seating and common areas throughout the stadium, these antennas create dedicated floor zones that result in improved coverage to the field areas for fans in 12 field-level suites and the Mercedes-Benz End Zone Club, teams and on-field media and broadcast elements. The project is also adding 2,500 new wireless access points placed in areas such as concourses, atriums, suites and food and beverage areas for better WiFi coverage.
