    Yeah I pick up sector 26 at 11 miles on bass pro hill. Its amazing what one stand alone tower can do.
  2. Mobilesolutions
    Did you get the Sector iD's?

    Techsico crews were present at the tower on Union parking lot at 10 AM this morning, Also saw a windstream truck out at the 81st & Mingo site. If we are lucky this Friday will be like last Friday and more 4G could pop up.

    Unless it's hasn't updated i don't see anything on sensorly that would make me think there is a 2nd live one.

    Can anyone confirm if this is the LTE panel being used widely at least in Erricson markets? RF X-TREME™ Cross Polarized Triple Band Antenna, 698-2170MHz, 65deg, 13.5/16.0/16.3dBi, 1.2m, VET, 0-8deg http://resources.tes...t_p5_666159.pdf If so these puppies are almost $1900.00 a piece ( Sprint may get a slighter better discount than i do).

    If you have have LTE where you live now and you don't have an LTE phone yet i wouldn't wait, If you don't have LTE yet i might wait it out for a Tri-band phone. However i don't expect 800 SMR LTE until later 2013 (assuming Sprint gets on the ball.)

    They are going as fast as they can with the available crews.

    Before any work started I had about 0.2mbps but now its consistently close to 1mbps

    If you donated $20 + then within an hour your status will change to "S4GRU sponsor" and Robert will grant you access to the sponsor section. It's at the bottom of the Forum main page.

    No, I'd like it to be a equal playing field for all the carriers. But that's not happening now and it won't happen unil Sprint and T-Mobile both gain market share from Verizon/ At&t.
  11. Mobilesolutions
    No doubt a bunch of smaller providers could employ more people and run just as high quality of network. However the big dogs like Verizon have ran them into the ground.
  12. Mobilesolutions
    T-mobile may be the smallest now but with some of their recent Ventures, Solavei & "uncarrier" stance i expect to see some growth for T-mobile & perhaps an interesting new twist in the wireless industry; considering they do have deploy-able spectrum to grow with.
  13. Mobilesolutions
    But one could argue it's good to allocate resources to their most valuable use, And Verizon is no slouch at putting resources to work.
  14. Mobilesolutions
    The inter-twinings of Verizon/AT&T is borderline incestual.

    We are having similar problems in Tulsa with our network vision, depending on which site you are connected to for your voice call you may experience interference; i had a call yesterday make a loud hissing noise. I've also been not getting texts and then hours later having them show up in waves. I even had a voicemail come through yesterday afternoon and my phone had never once rang. Hang in there fellas, Lte is a comin!
  16. Mobilesolutions
    Dave if you become a sponsor you can see all of Sprint's towers.

    I just happened to check my phone while at 111th and Garnett yesterday, still indicated 4G. I'm sure if signal did reach the property it would not be strong enough to permeate indoors, and probably wont be until the tower out by Bixby's Super-Target is Live..(81st and Mingo tower might reach out their too, but im sure the one by Target is closer.) Also both sites are in progress, the one by Target has had top antenna panels for about a month, and in the last 2 weeks they have gone back and wired them. They have been out at the 81st Tower several times as well and as of last week they installed panels. Not 100% on this but i assume they just need inspection.

    That tower is nuts,I picked it up on bass pro hill @ 11 miles. I've also picked it up by lake bixhoma..I'd guess that's about 8 miles.
  19. Mobilesolutions
    I got 34.89 yesterday,speeds will only improve as they bring on new sites and get closer to your physical location...Well they will improve until the network is saturated with users, then speeds drop accordingly, Also on a 5x5 carrier channel which is what we have in OK we are maxed out around 37 Mbps on downlink (21 on uplink). 7mbps, almost 1 full MB is a very good internet connection. I bet average speeds will be slightly better than that to much better than that depending on traffic load. Keep searching for Lte!

    More or less 1900mhz can penetrate buildings and I've had very acceptable data performance without line of sight. However the root of your problem is that in non upgraded areas everyone's performance is slow because the sites are over capacity and the network is unable to handle the amount of requests at a given time. The legacy network was designed in a day when data usage meant checking emails, today we have very heavy data intensive apps and it has seriously hurt these old towers. If you have no signal or low low signal at home you could check into getting an airave from Sprint, also I'd check the market section to see when you're area begins NV.
  21. Mobilesolutions
    I think it should be noted that just because you have 4 bars and a 4G icon, that does not mean you have 4 bars of 4G. The signal bars only indicate your 1x voice strentgh. To see your data connection strength you should either use the engineering screen, or download a 3rd party app like signalcheck lite (though it may not be 100% accurate.). Performance #s drop off steeply after about -105 dBm, and its hard to determine actual real life performance until the entire area is densely covered with lte sites & loaded with 4G subscribers. That said, I've noticed my 3G connection to have improved in all areas I've visited in the last week;smoothly loads web pages emails, apps,streaming music. However it still does not load videos well and I suspect it will continue to struggle until 3G is complete. NV complete 3G sites spit a solid 1.5-2mbps back.

    on memorial you can pick it up at about 81st. on mingo about 101st it dies out. At both those locations the signal is unusable. once signal strength gets under -100dbm speeds remain consistent all the way till -75dbm when your staring at the tower. Very pleased so far.
  23. Mobilesolutions
    sure ya can, shove a hose down its throat... I'm excited to see LTE on, it's a good start.
  24. Mobilesolutions
    Got back in town early tonight, drove around to find where the signal was originating from ( mapped sensorly as well) tracked it out to Bixby.
  25. Mobilesolutions
    The glorious day hath come!! I have a few SIDs I'll Be posting all I have when I get back Sunday.
