Flompholph Posted September 22, 2016 Share Posted September 22, 2016 I thought CA was on in Shentel I can't remember seeing it though. I know 2nd carrier is widespread where B41 is located. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Galaxyguy Posted September 22, 2016 Share Posted September 22, 2016 I thought CA was on in Shentel I can't remember seeing it though. I know 2nd carrier is widespread where B41 is located.In my county (Shenandoah Co), I've found three towers so far with B41. All have two carriers active, but CA is not active.

Jones Posted September 23, 2016 Share Posted September 23, 2016 I only know of 1 B41 site in Jefferson County, WV. But it does have CA. Sent from my SM-G930P using Tapatalk 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leozno1 Posted September 26, 2016 Share Posted September 26, 2016 im noticing alot of degraded signal quality in the area... im assuming the towers are getting upgraded now or the backhaul in Shenandoah is being upgraded I used to get LTE inside my job in New Oxford and as of about a month ago, i barely get signal. If I leave my phone sitting alone on my desk, it will occasionally pick up LTE, but as soon as I pick up my phone, it'll drop to 3G and sometimes 1x and is completely unusable. A coworker and I already reported network issues via Sprint Zone app a few times and are hoping they resolve whatever got messed up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chamb Posted August 19, 2017 Share Posted August 19, 2017 Just found a new 10X10 band 25 carrier in Shentel territory. It Waynesboro, Pa city UL channel 26140 DL Channel 8140. This is a change. We did have the standard G block 5X5 and another 5X5 probably in Block "A" SCP identifies this as B25 with no second carrier identification. I am not sure if they obtained something other than block "A" somehow or what. I have not seen a B-25 second carrier identification in SCPsince this 10X10 suddenly appeared, but there may still be a second b-25 carrier here. An nTelos site was removed here as it was no longer needed. nTelos used band 25 but not sure what block was used here. It was not block "A:" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my SM-G935P using Tapatalk No, 8140 is the product of an expansion of the 5x5 A Block LTE carrier to a 10x10 A Block carrier. The 5x5 G Block carrier (at 8665) should not have changed...

The 5x5 G Block carrier (at 8665) should not have changed... It was late last night when I discovered this new 10X10 Carrier and I did not really have time to investigate it. You could be right on the use of the "A" Block. It could be that Shentel could be forcing more 1x voice traffic onto 800 so that they could clear the "A" block for this 10X10. Another possibility is that 1X voice could have been shifted onto 1900 spectrum they obtained when they killed the nTelos cell sites in this area of Pennsylvania. Needs more investigation. My Galaxy s7 totally loves this new 10X10 and I am not able to get it to land on the old "G" block at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dhrumil2504 Posted August 20, 2017 Share Posted August 20, 2017 (edited) Does anybody know of any improvement going on or about to happen in the Roanoke valley area? I used to get 60+ at my house from the beginning with B41, now I’m at 5-20 Mbps.. The pings are higher, however B41 actually works now in the Valley View area.. (it wouldn’t even assign an IP at the beginning).. I’m wondering if CA is scheduled to come to town any time soon.. pretty big market for Sprint here..

Galaxyguy Posted August 26, 2017 Share Posted August 26, 2017 Looks like I found my first B25 CA. This is outside of Edinburg, VA. It's two 5x5 carriers. I would be curious to know why they haven't enabled a 10x10 carrier, since they have spectrum to do that in this area, but hey, I'll take it.
