joplin must have been a mistake from sprint its almost been 4 months now

 

Sprint never specified what the "coming months" meant. And this is the reason. Part of north Texas was announced in July, yet still hasn't launched. Work of some sort is underway in the Missouri market, including Joplin, so I don't believe it is too far off now.

 

oh and according to sensorly Pittsburg KS and Nevada MO both have 4G already

 

Yes, they do, I mapped a good chunk of the area around Nevada. However they are in the Kansas market, not related to Joplin. Also, Sprint has not made any announcement about these cities, so they will not be on the map. I believe they are part of the Joplin "metro" area and will show up on coverage maps when Joplin is announced. However, I am not certain of that.

Nice of them to box around Ohio :) lol. I saw cleveland was on the stage 3 list, any chance of NV coming here this year?

 

Yes. Work will be starting this Spring in the Cleveland market.

I think they saw this and decided to see the sights first, (one can't fully appreciate Cleveland after just a day, a week, or even a year long tour), so they might be a while...

Still waiting for San Diego

 

Over one hundred sites being worked on in San Diego. I think the first LTE testing signal will be within 45-60 days.

Apparently there isn't much to be seen at all.

I think 30 days max is plenty of time. I don't think they will want to stretch it into March. Sprint's customers are very angry in San Diego and I'm sure they realize that by now.

Gettysburg, PA was also officially announced.

 

I think you mean to say that Gettysburg was also officially "addressed."

 

:P

Four score and 7 minutes ago :tu: (I know it was def longer than that but I tried).

 

General Lee was nobody's fool! I remember he said to the troops, "Boys, ask not what your country can do for you, 'cause the only thing we have to fear is fear itself. I have a dream!" So, when Lincoln heard that, he was, like, "I better hightail it to Charleston, 'cause it's time for one of my Gettysburg addresses."

 

I wish that I could find a video clip because, folks, you have not lived until you have seen this Saturday Night Live sketch. "Civil War Memories: Ordinary Americans who never completed high school look back at the war between the states."

 

The sketch video is great, as it is done in the archival documentary and talking heads style of Ken Burns. Alas, I can find only the transcript:

On my way to work today I noticed an americom truck and a lift at the base of a tower. Could this be the start of sprints LTE rollout here in utah? Ive heard rumors but have not been able to confirm it anywhere? What should I look for?

There was an Americom truck here at a Sprint GMO site here in New Mexico. Take some pictures of the base station equipment and we will see if we can help identify. I know work is underway at GMO sites in Colorado. They may be in Utah too. What is the location of the site?

Not in this initial wave. Just Terre Haute and Quincy. But I think this will change rapidly.

Now when you mean rapidly, do you mean by like possibly the summer of this year (2013). I have not seen and word on the central Illinois area myself.

    • T-Mobile Fires Back At AT&T After Their Statements On T-Priority
    • 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.

    • FCC: "We remain committed to helping with recovery efforts in states affected by Hurricane Helene. We stand ready to do all that is necessary to return connectivity to hard-hit areas and save lives." SpaceX: "SpaceX and @TMobile have been given emergency special temporary authority by the @FCC to enable @Starlink satellites with direct-to-cell capability to provide coverage for cell phones in the affected areas of Hurricane Helene. The satellites have already been enabled and started broadcasting emergency alerts to cell phones on all networks in North Carolina. In addition, we may test basic texting (SMS) capabilities for most cell phones on the T-Mobile network in North Carolina. SpaceX’s direct-to-cell constellation has not been fully deployed, so all services will be delivered on a best-effort basis." Space posted this at 2pm today on X.
