Network Vision/LTE - Missouri Market (includes St. Louis)

So I was driving through Fenton tonight and I was at Gravois Bluffs when I noticed a 4G signal....SCID says it was the Des Peres site.  That's 7.3 straight miles....pretty good distance.

 

Also noticed we have 3 yellow pins in the STL area now for 3G and 4G acceptances on the same tower.  The 4th out in Wentzville isn't new but I think the others are.

Yes, those were Monday's and Tuesday's along with the 2 new 4G acceptances.

Are you talking about the yellow pin at Wright City? Wentzville doesn't have any yellow pins on the map.....

If anyone is near those sites today, which i know at least some of you are going to be near the new 170 site. Try to grab a signal and pull SCID. Will be greatly appreciated.

See who can get there first. Ill be heading up 170 about 4:15....

OK, so it turns out the site at Girl Scout Rd and Meridian in Glen Carbon is not a false alarm.  The cable was back yesterday as I drove to work, and I thought I even saw a dude up there at the top of the tower as I sped by.

 

Stopped by this morning, and there was a crew at the site.  They said they were doing some shelter work for Sprint.  I asked if they had new cabinets, and the guy said they were in the shelter.  There was also a trailer there with three antennas and some boxes.  They crew didn't know anything about them, and said they weren't doing any of the tower work.

 

Not sure I can confirm that these are NV from this angle and with the lack of visible RRUs.  Anybody?

Steveo, you will definitely beat me there, as I don't think I'm going back that way for work anytime soon.  hopefully it will actually be live, it seemed to take about a week or so before the I-70 & Bircher site went live after acceptance.

[lilg740]

Sprint, go home.....you're drunk

I will also need someone to grab HEX as well. So if anyone with HTC/Iphone want to grab that, please do.

After reviewing my pics that I have on my computer I am 99% sure these are NV Panels. Take a close look at the back of this panel before they put RRU's on. and also the sticker on the top of the panel.

[lilg740]

Does anyone have any updates on the existing Joplin towers with panels which are not broadcasting LTE yet?

I don't have any updates for you but maybe you could help with some HEX SCID's in Joplin. I only have 1. It would be a greatly appreciated if you could get those for us!

2 LTE Acceptances from Tuesday. Anyone want to check them out and grab SCID?

I can get the one on Lemay and Mt Olive.  Anyone know what the lock code is? After I do a ##33284# my phone is asking for it.

SPRINT =777468. LTE Engineering screens are appreciated from all devices but are preferred from HTC/iPhone. Both numbers matter but iPhone/HTC will give you the HEX which is tied directly to the site ID.

Yes those are RFS antennas used in the NV upgrade... I can spot those all day long.  In fact those boxes behind them to the right are the RRUs.  Spot those things from a mile away it seems now...kinda sad like being able to instantly add and subtract 169 from a number without thinking about it.

I am going to go ahead and say that 170 and Delmar is broadcasting because there is dark purple there and new blips all the way to the Rock Road.
