Also, each device has different RF performance. It's possible that no modification in power was made, but the person who mapped after you visited has a device that has better RF performance on the PCS LTE band.

Way to ruin my excitement.. geez.... Haha. But I'll still check it out and see if I am getting a signal or not. That would be cool if I did, I would stop complaining so much.

I wouldn't be surprised if you are getting signal from the Canyon Park because if you look at the S. Sound towers, LTE is bouncing all over the water and in this case, it might be bouncing off Lake Washington. One other thing to consider is that it might be an active tower nearby. When I went to the Granite Falls site last week I got LTE, but even right near the tower it wasn't much. The signal faded fairly quickly. This week they may have increased the power because sensorly is showing a larger footprint. Again, I had NO idea how this stuff works. Best bet is to look at the panels and see if you see an RUU (don't confuse with VZW). One thing at the Granite Falls site was seeing the new fiber line they installed. I could see it come off the pole and could make out the recent dig marks in the ground.

I'll look into it more if I get a signal again. I may then be able to see if it's the tower from Canyon park bouncing off the water or if it is a new tower coming online. Will keep everyone posted

Uploaded sensorly around my area in Lake Forest Park. There seems to be a very little bit. I'll search around this area either tonight or tomorrow for some more

I am getting really anxious for it to hit Lynnwood and around my house in Lake Forest Park. I wish it would get here already. I've been driving around for the past 3 weeks around my area seeing if I get any LTE. I've checked Lynnwood, Mountlake Terrace, Lake Forest Park, Kenmore, and Bothell. Been to Canyon Park cause I know they have some. I know it will happen when it happens but still....

Saw the 4G indicator light up for the first time this afternoon when I was in Canyon Park. Nice to see so much activity in the Puget Sound area in such a short period of time. I hope we see the sites coming online at an even faster clip going forward.

 

Yeah same here. I'm really looking forward it to expanding up here. I have a feeling we will see more within the month

I noticed this morning that there was another crane at the tower in Lynnwood at 196th. Not sure what they were doing and it was to foggy to take a picture. Hopefully we'll something soon. I also mapped more down 405 and surrounding areas, did what I could. Some adequate speeds

I noticed a small blip on sensorly up in Canyon park. Can anyone confirm this? I'll make my way up there this weekend.

Is the downtown Seattle LTE available around the Space Needle and EMP?

Unfortunately there is no LTE in downtown Seattle yet. The marker you see in the map is just for a general area. Surrounding area's such as Kent and Redmond have seen some signs of LTE. I believe the best way to see where there is LTE is sensorly.

Don't forget, most of outside of the large cities in WA are stuck on CenturyUnlink DSL, anything faster than 0.3 Mbps is faaasssttt to us.

I am so sorry. That would drive me insane. I'm never complaining again, though I would still like to have that speed on my cell phone. I think we all would

31mbps. That's 4X faster than my at home wifi. wish I had that now.

That is faster than most people's wifi. It's amazing what they are able to push out over these devices. I have Comcast and they are beating me at speeds.

Will you guys in the south stop hogging all of the LTE? Gosh..... Haha I'm glad to see it starting to expand in Washington, now it just needs to start coming up north. I'm jealous of those speeds you all are getting down there.

Welcome JThorson! Now get your ass out there with your SGS3 and Sensorly app and DO YOUR JOB! What do you think those LTE maps are going to populate themselves! LMAO! J/K, nice to have you here! Oh and S4GRU, aka Robert, likes to be referred to as "S4GRU GOD" in any future posts you make. Trust me...

Uh oh, I'm already in trouble I don't even know what to say..... Oh wait, yes I do. I've been going around and putting jammers on all the cell towers muahahaha.... On the other note I've been driving around Lynnwood and Lake Forest Park in search of all the towers. I'm waiting for some juicy LTE to come up my way. Thanks for lighting a fire underneath me. I guess having red hair doesn't help that haha. Also, thanks for the inside scoop about Robert, always good to have a way to flatter him All hail S4GRU GOD... We Are Not Worthy! Oh and thanks for the welcomes

I'm north of Seattle, in Lake Forest Park. I haven't seen any LTE yet but I have seen some improvements in 3g. I got a d/l of 2mbps today. I know someone who works on cell towers and he's been working on sites up here and in Oregon. I'm glad to see things finally starting to happen.

Would just like to say hello to this great community. I've been following this site for about 5 months but never got around to signing up. I would also like to say thanks to everyone for what you do and keeping us all well posted.
