I will update the first post later with Specs and Apple's direct pricing. Sent from my Gold iPhone 6s Plus 128GB using Tapatalk

If it's still acting up in the beta's, then most likely it'll still give issues in iPhone 7/7 Plus Sent from my Gold iPhone 6s Plus 128GB using Tapatalk

In Vegas I'm sure they do, but I don't know that they turned on AWS in Pahrump. Pahrump is left out of many things because it's not a big money making area like Lost Wages (Las Vegas). Sent from my Gold iPhone 6s Plus 128GB using Tapatalk

Verizon Band 13 sucks. I've heard T-Mobile sucks in some areas and is better in others. I'm still on 3G! I hope LTE launches soon. Sent from my Gold iPhone 6s Plus 128GB using Tapatalk

This is the best I've ever gotten in Pahrump. Sent from my Gold iPhone 6s Plus 128GB using Tapatalk

Ok, so I just went through my SCP log from last Friday on my LG G Pad, and I picked up 5 different B26 signals, 2 of which are from the same tower, just 2 different sectors. 1st and last were on 160 just west of the 159 junction. 2nd was on Charleston Blvd on the edge of Summerlin. 3rd was in the parking lot of Downtown Summerlin about a block up from the Apple Store. 4th was near Ft Apache and Warm Springs. Strongest rsrp from any of the 5 signals was -95. As of now, it's anyone's guess as to where these 4 towers are.

I guess we won't know until someone in that county checks and reports Sent from my Gold iPhone 6s Plus 128GB using Tapatalk

Found LTE 800 on the outskirts of Summerlin on Charleston Blvd. Sent from my Gold iPhone 6s Plus 128GB using Tapatalk

I have no idea about the status of the network in Jean. All I know is the relay chain starts in Jean, runs to Sandy Valley, then through the desert to Pahrump. Sent from my Gold iPhone 6s Plus 128GB using Tapatalk

San Bernardino County Emergency services have time and again delayed their upgrades to their systems forcing Sprint to wait over and over. I sure hope this stupid debacle is over soon and B26 LTE is launched in the area soon. Sent from my Gold iPhone 6s Plus 128GB using Tapatalk

We have no Band 41 equipment on the 2 Sprint sites in Pahrump, but they are full build sites so we will get Band 26 at least in addition to Band 25. As for the Microwave setup, they are running it from Jean through Sandy Valley and then out to Pahrump. The sites on 160 between Vegas and Pahrump could feasibly get LTE B25 because the equipment is PCS with the GMO set up, but I'm not worried if it happens or doesn't. I just want it in Pahrump.

Doesn't this also open the door to wifi calling to macro network handoff and back? Sent from my Gold iPhone 6s Plus 128GB using Tapatalk

In terms of Framily customers, it doesn't decrease profits, because I'd gladly pay $15/mo more for 5GB of tethering. 6GB on Framily is $50/mo! As soon as I pay off my lease, I'm switching. Sent from my Gold iPhone 6s Plus 128GB using Tapatalk

You hate GMO's like I do. However, I have full build sites worse than many of the GMO's I've used in the last 6 months. Sent from my Gold iPhone 6s Plus 128GB using Tapatalk

GMO's. 3G still works pretty good on most GMO's in the area. Sent from my Gold iPhone 6s Plus 128GB using Tapatalk

We do create threads for most, if not all devices launched on Sprint, even if they are the most expensive devices and the chance that even one person buying it in our membership is slim. Sent from my Gold iPhone 6s Plus 128GB using Tapatalk

There are a number of iPad users here, but just not very much discussion like smartphone users. Sent from my Gold iPhone 6s Plus 128GB using Tapatalk

That's what I'm hoping. Sent from my Gold iPhone 6s Plus 128GB using Tapatalk

And there is a chance that getting permits in Clark County, NV for the last 2 links could be a problem, but at least Nye County was quick and easy. Sent from my Gold iPhone 6s Plus 128GB using Tapatalk

Yes. They applied for extending their microwave relays at the beginning of July and got approval on the 22nd. I saw them out there working yesterday, but they weren't back this morning when I was back in the area. Hopefully tomorrow when I go back again. The last I was told by a Sprint rep was the end of this year for LTE in Pahrump, which it's looking closer to that. They have at least 4 links they have to add to complete the chain.

Today I was right by the north Sprint site in Pahrump and they were working on the tower running cable for the new microwave backhaul that they are adding to the sites on the Pahrump side of Mt Charleston. I'll try to get better pics tomorrow because the 1 I did get was really blurry.

Still on 3G. Not even a mistaken LTE public test yet. The problem we have is AT&T is lazy with their fiber expansion, and Valley Electric has hit many snags in their fiber rollout to the point they switched to wireless in the interim. And Suddenlink Communications, which just recently bought our local cable company, is taking a backseat and just maintaining the cable network here, with no intentions to expand service. And the local WISP oversold service so much that it's questionable at best. Sent from my Gold iPhone 6s Plus 128GB using Tapatalk

Backhaul for rural sites has been a hard and slow process. It's terrible how slow it's going. Microwave backhaul to rural sites seems to becoming a big norm in the desert southwest. Here in Pahrump, they applied for amendments for existing permits to expand microwave backhaul to all sites running in Pahrump and between Pahrump & Vegas.

Unfortunately many of the sites between Barstow and Baker are GMO, and don't even have 800MHz equipment. Sent from my Gold iPhone 6s Plus 128GB using Tapatalk
