Can I renounce my S4GRU Team Membership to participate? :lol:

 

Like in FCC spectrum auctions, just get a "Designated Entity" to donate in your place.

Maybe I can work something out like the Alphabet - Google purchase.

We now have taken in enough donations that the winner will get a choice between a 64GB iPhone 6s Plus or a 128GB iPhone 6s. This is the maximum we will be upgrading the winning unit. The winner will be able to choose between these two units.

 

Thank you for your overwhelming support.  We will stop taking entries this Friday evening.  These are the last few days to join.  Make your donation, today!

Hey Robert, maybe this winter S4GRU could raffle an iPad Pro as another fund raiser. Thoughts?

These are turning out to be pretty successful. I may be up for doing that.

If the two current fundraisers go well, then that is the likely plan to raffle off future devices of interest.  To maintain relevance, they will need to be cellular devices that are Sprint specific or Sprint compatible.  The iPad Pro in its LTE configuration would qualify as the latter, though that would make it an extra expensive raffle.

The price point makes it a difficult candidate. A device starting at $300 to 500 or even the 6s entails us taking on substantially less risk than an iPad Pro.

Maybe start with the Mini 4 and possibly upgrade to a larger device (Air, Air 2 or Pro) as funds are raised?  I do not want to impede on the true reason of the raffles (to raise money for support of S4GRU) but as we have seen with the iPhone, S4GRU should receive plenty of support.

Seeing as it's my 21st birthday on Monday... I'm hoping I win myself a present!  :D

 

Gotta go through bills and stuff first, but I might be able to throw in a little more tomorrow morning.

      Definite usage quirks in hunting down these sites with a rainbow sim in a s24 ultra. Fell into a hole yesterday so sent off to T-Mobile purgatory. Try my various techniques. No Dish. Get within binocular range of former Sprint colocation and can see Dish equipment. Try to manually set network and everybody but no Dish is listed.  Airplane mode, restart, turn on and off sim, still no Dish. Pull upto 200ft from site straight on with antenna.  Still no Dish. Get to manual network hunting again on phone, power off phone for two minutes. Finally see Dish in manual network selection and choose it. Great signal as expected. I still think the 15 minute rule might work but lack patience. (With Sprint years ago, while roaming on AT&T, the phone would check for Sprint about every fifteen minutes. So at highway speed you could get to about the third Sprint site before roaming would end). Using both cellmapper and signalcheck.net maps to hunt down these sites. Cellmapper response is almost immediate these days (was taking weeks many months ago).  Their idea of where a site can be is often many miles apart. Of course not the same dataset. Also different ideas as how to label a site, but sector details can match with enough data (mimo makes this hard with its many sectors). Dish was using county spacing in a flat suburban area, but is now denser in a hilly richer suburban area.  Likely density of customers makes no difference as a poorer urban area with likely more Dish customers still has country spacing of sites.

      Mike if you need more Dish data, I have been hunting down sites in western Columbus.  So far just n70 and n71 reporting although I CA all three.

      Good catch! I meant 115932/119932. Edited my original post I've noticed the same thing lately and have just assumed that they're skipping it now because they're finally able to deploy mmWave small cells.
