Has anybody seen any differences?  I have not yet.

Not really. Two Clear to NV conversions in Seattle are now shown on the voice map, but that's all I've noticed.

How many of the Clear sites are left to convert nationwide?

I found this weird coverage map site from Sprint, I think it's a test site: https://coverageort.sprint.com/IMPACT.jsp?

The updated date updates every day. I can't tell of any changes though. 

Interesting...it says updated today although the map is relatively out of date.

Not sure what it's for.

Perhaps a test for "Verified Coverage" like T-Mobile does?

Very interesting find! May I ask how you found it? Were you testing different URL's?

Check out that Five Gee in the legend. This is something new for sure.

That's awesome. Nice catch. Take a look at launch markets!

Interesting for sure. If this is what launch markets will look like then that's awesome since my home would be blanketed in 5G coverage.

i know they have been using M-MIMO equipment outside of launch market in some cases. I noticed that Peekskill NY shows 5G coverage. Technically its with in the NYC market but 5G launches have mostly been by city not the entire market. I have a feeling this site shows coverage for all M-MIMO equipment for when they push 5G software. If you look at Dallas and Dc there are also a few blotches of 5G coverage far from the city

Any url from the sprint.com domain with "ort" is a test site. Newer sites I don't think use ort anymore but many of them are internal meaning you need to be on their intranet. I guess a few of them slip through and this is one of them.

I simply used Google. https://www.google.com/search?q=site%3Asprint.com+"ort"&oq=site%3Asprint.com+"ort"

Cool! Thanks for the info. Really nice find.

The 5G map was pulled and I didn't have a chance to grab the tile URLs, unfortunately. Someone posted it on reddit and I think Sprint caught wind of it.

Sometimes Sprint's coverage map really frustrates me, as they severely understate coverage. I drove between Galesburg, IL and Moline, IL today and never dropped below -114 L800 although the coverage map indicates large roaming holes along the highway. They also don't give themselves enough credit going east form Galesburg on 74. I only dropped LTE once to 1x800 and it was for maybe 15 seconds, although the map indicates lots of roaming and "fair" voice coverage areas.

As soon as I saw it on Reddit, I started counting down. Sprint patrols Reddit much more than this site.

There are a bunch in the Missouri Market that still needs to be converted. I've only found a few that have been converted but not many

      A new 60MB GP System update was waiting when I checked my S24+ tonight.  And bringing it to a November 1 date this time.

      Network Vision/LTE - West Washington Market (Seattle/Puget Sound Region)

      Drove by there and it definitely isn't on the Northlake property. It was very late, so I couldn't see much else though. Did some more sleuthing on GoogleMaps and I suspect it might be this powerline site nearby: Google Maps I will go by there in the next couple of days during the daytime and see if that's the case.

      Vinegar Hill is getting the Brooklyn Heights treatment now with regard to small cells. I mapped two more small cells in the neighborhood in the past few days so now T-Mobile is up to 8 of them in such a tiny neighborhood. While it's cool they're doing this since it means outdoors you get a consistent 400Mbps+ almost everywhere, it sucks because they're obviously deploying so many of them to make up for their lack of a macro site in the entire neighborhood. Because there isn't a macro, the small cells have a greater coverage area than you see in other neighborhoods and you often connect to them while indoors but coverage and speeds fall off indoors much faster on small cells than on macros in my experience.  Even Dish has better coverage than T-Mobile in Vinegar Hill since they added the site on top of the Extra Space Storage building alongside AT&T and Verizon. T-Mobile needs to get in line with their competitors there.
