Sprint would be eligible to receive the payment if the two companies don’t close the deal by April 29, 2019 (with the option to extend that time frame pending regulatory approval), and if Sprint has indicated that it is ready and willing to complete the merger by that date.  

 

That is an interesting choice of an If.. and if Sprint has indicated that it is ready and willing to complete the merger by that date...

 

I doubt Sprint is worried about the 600 million imo.. as long as they get the roaming I think Sprint will walk away happy

After studying the Sprint-T-Mobile proposal for more than three months, the Department of Justice, while not yet making a decision on the merger, now believes there needs to be three carriers to establish a true competitive marketplace, according to a source with direct knowledge of the thinking within the DOJ.

Is that M-MIMO equipment being added?

That’s a good question. Hopefully so. Quite the camera crew there.

Those Yankee Stadium upgrades should definitely help keep the areas around Yankee Stadium from getting saturated during games.

What does a six beam antenna look like?

Thanks. This seems like a decent amount of new capacity for Yankee Stadium?

A six beam antenna sounds pretty awesome.

You have to click on the city and the scroll to the bottom and look for 2nd half.. I'll give you one city .. click on Sarasota Florida and at the bottom you will see 2nd half 18 and then click on insights and there you will see Sprint increased speeds from 12.4 Mbps to 24.3mbps

Thats mostly with out 4x4 mimo and 256 Qam. I think if did 4x4 mimo on band 25 and band 41 and 256 qam possibly blow by t-mobile and Verizon in speeds.

I agree, it seems this is just getting actual band 41 on just more towers that we're previously band 25 only

I wonder how many subs Sprint has in San Antonio? Both AT&T and T-Mobile seem, at least from my perspective, the most popular carriers in the Alamo City.

      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 coule potentially provide much better coverage to the entire area.

      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.
