RedSpark Posted April 6, 2018 Share Posted April 6, 2018 Speaking of Coverage.... Sprint’s Coverage Map was just updated today (4/6/2018): http://coverage.sprint.com/IMPACT.jsp DC’s Coverage appears to be messed up now. A bunch of LTE Plus Coverage over Downtown is missing.

They sort of fixed the Missouri market issues that came with the last update, so that's good. Fix one, break another I guess. Ha! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was handed alot that takes years to recover from. People talk about TMO while forgetting att paid for that. If Sprint would have gotten that money the would likely be where TMO is also.
