My favorite part, the "Top 10 Shit List". I wonder what towers are on that list? lol

I can think of a 3G GMO smack in the middle of a high-density suburb with apartments and a couple of strip malls that times out no matter what time of day it is that might be on the list at some point down the line. None of the equipment is technically broken (the phone is still sending and receiving data according to engineering screens) but it straight-up doesn't work. Sprint Zone reports don't even send while connected to the site. I'd imagine they are working down the list of sites like that by order of dropped calls since that's the metric they focus on the most. Fixing what we call NV problem sites. At least I hope so.

You have an address for that site?

Not sure I can indicate a site's status outside the sponsor forums. I can PM it to you if you want. Or if a staff member says it's OK I can post it here. And there are actually two such sites on my end of the city but one of them is pretty close to a working LTE site so it's not quite as overloaded.

Alright then. :)

 

*snip* (decided to PM. If anyone wants to check it out on the sponsor maps it's the 3G site in south-central suburban Charlotte.) Covers the strip mall it's on top of plus the one to the southeast. And all the surrounding houses and apartments obviously.

Do me a favor and PM me a reminder with the address, thanks!

The nine most terrifying words in the English language are "I'm from the S4GRU, and I'm here to help."

    • Was able to install the March 1 Android security patch. Seems slightly more accurate with 5g ca band id, but can not swear by it. Updated google play system update through the software information screen to March 1. *#73# still works. Froze updates waiting on SCP update beta to fix n41 showing as n38.
    • Just installed it. Thanks for the info.  71 mb mar 1st date.
    • There's a permit for a new 47 story building at 205 Montague St in Downtown Brooklyn. The problem is that  T-Mobile eNB 48352 is on the building next door and this new building will block two out of 3 sectors of the site. For reference, the new building will be roughly as tall as 16 Court St which is right across the street. This site is the primary site covering Cadman Plaza so I wonder what the plan is. Will they just try to change sector placement, move to a different building, or will this just speed up the conversion of the Sprint site at 25 Monroe Place?
    • At least not recently.  I think I might have seen this a year ago.  Not Sure.
    • Did they previously hop between n38 and n41 in prior version of SCP, or have you always seen n41 displayed properly?
