JKFWEB Posted June 7, 2013 Share Posted June 7, 2013 Hey, Could you possibly check out the site near Baxter and Clayton Rd? Should be directly behind a strip mall(Lesters, Goodwill and Liquor store) This site is scheduled to be completed by July 24th so there should be some signs of work. I live off of Baxter, about 3 min from there. I will try to leave early tomorrow and check it out. Just take pictures? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lilg740 Posted June 7, 2013 Share Posted June 7, 2013 Ya, of the fenced in area at the base, of the panels and if you see any evidence of digging etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lilg740 Posted June 7, 2013 Share Posted June 7, 2013 Doh! Uncheck the collect coverage data now. Give a hoot don't sensorly pollute! I have decided that I will map sensorly within 100 feet of the site and no further. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
digiblur Posted June 7, 2013 Share Posted June 7, 2013 I have decided that I will map sensorly within 100 feet of the site and no further. Fair choice... kinda like a dog, "pee" on the site a little to mark your territory and wait for the other dogs to come by Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lilg740 Posted June 7, 2013 Share Posted June 7, 2013 Drove by the Des Peres site tonight at 9:30 pm and there was no LTE. They aren't always turned on immediately. It will be soon though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
digiblur Posted June 7, 2013 Share Posted June 7, 2013 Drove by the Des Peres site tonight at 9:30 pm and there was no LTE. In my market we have sites that had RRUs installed, antennas, and cabinets in November 2012. As of today still no LTE. Then on the other hand I've seen sites go from 100% legacy to 3G/4G accept in 5-6 days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James4811 Posted June 7, 2013 Share Posted June 7, 2013 Does anyone know how to tell if Sprint will be using fiber or a microwave for the back haul? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doomstang Posted June 7, 2013 Share Posted June 7, 2013 Does anyone know how to tell if Sprint will be using fiber or a microwave for the back haul? For the future? I don't think so. After the fact? Yeah...just look for a microwave drum 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
popfrag Posted June 7, 2013 Share Posted June 7, 2013 Collected some data on my southern MO drive yesterday. Just north of West Plains MO, and even the little town of Seymore <2000 population has full 4g service. Still nowhere close to Springfield yet. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've seen microwave on Sprint only cell sites when has absolutely nothing to do with Sprint. It was a company shooting backhaul for one of their buildings since fiber was not available at their location. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

steveo314 Posted June 7, 2013 Share Posted June 7, 2013 Didn't work still trying to figure it out. Dropbox links won't work and Flickr doesn't work either i guess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lilg740 Posted June 7, 2013 Share Posted June 7, 2013 still trying to figure it out. Dropbox links won't work and Flickr doesn't work either i guess. If you are on your computer, click on the photo.When it comes up and the cursor changes to a magnifying glass click it again. Then right cick on the pic and select your size. There should now be a link at the top that says, Download the (size) version of this photo. copy and paste that link. Flickr changed a lot last month and made it harder to get the link to the photo.

JKFWEB Posted June 7, 2013 Share Posted June 7, 2013 That is one of the weirdest sites I have ever seen. I hope the pictures helped. It doesn't appear there is any work being performed, and/or Sprint work has started. I truthfully I would of never noticed the tower without you telling me. It was really close to my house Sorry about the actual tower photo, I didn't review before I left and I guess looking straight up from underneath with the sun and lighting produced slightly darker than normal pictures. I also tried to zoom in which I believe messed it up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
