  1. Are changes in roaming not applied per account until the start of new billing cycles? Should they be? Could that be the explanation? AJ
  2. …or even with DAS. Plenty of early DAS had only one or a few sectors. Coverage, not capacity was the goal. More recent DAS has utilized typically tens of sectors, so capacity is better. But it still is often no match for major sporting event crowds. That is why enterprise grade Wi-Fi is such an important mandate among pro sports franchises. Your average MLB park or NFL stadium will have hundreds of dual band access points, thus the equivalent of hundreds, if not thousands of cellular sectors. AJ
  3. Yes, it is a little known fact that Robert is actually a pygmy person. I actually have a joke about a group of pygmy warriors and a sorority track team, but it is too crude to tell in public. AJ
  4. 55.5 MHz. That is the attributable BRS spectrum. AJ
  5. S4GRU: The Next Generation Starring... S4GRU as Captain Jean-Luc Robert (pronounced "Row-BARE") WiWavelength as Number One (but haters call him "Number Two") COZisBack as Cedric La Forge Trip as Lieutenant Commander TV Data MacinJosh as Worf AJ
  6. Two Rx antennas, one Tx antenna, that is it. No uplink MIMO. AJ
  7. Yes, others have noticed the decline in activity in The Forums. Unfortunately, the Sprint network has improved so much in most markets that users are now less interested in tracking Network Vision deployment. AJ
  8. What is your interest in this? And is this even a Sprint variant Samsung Galaxy S6? If so, three of those seven bands are not relevant to the US. The others are the CCA/RRPP bands, but enabling them is not going to do anything. Sprint has not activated CCA/RRPP roaming, which is controlled network side. AJ
  9. I suppose that other antennas -- via absorption or induction -- could be reducing ERP/EIRP in at least some planes/vectors. That is an interesting theory. But any second cellular antenna is Rx only, not Tx. And how would you disable it? Physically remove it? Would you do the same for Wi-Fi/Bluetooth? If you are not happy with the RF performance, my suggestion would be to move on to another handset, rather than to make possibly disastrous engineering changes. AJ
  10. S4GRU allows standard image file extensions -- anything beyond that in the URL will not work. Additionally, many members use TinyPic and Imgur with no problems. AJ
  11. We generally do not make moderation decisions public, but maximus aka lou99 is on a three day suspension for his argumentative reaction (now hidden) to the "softb" correction. He previously was asked to stop using the term "softy," so he just shifted to "softb." I make this announcement because I know that many of you will breathe a sigh of relief at maximus' temporary absence. AJ
  12. A Google query on "softb" brings up mostly softball, nothing on SoftBank. maximus, you will start writing out "SoftBank," not "softy" or "softb." Otherwise, staff will hide any of your offending posts. You will lose the satisfaction that you crave. AJ
  13. And because Lloyd Braun is the head of Transit Wireless. Frank and Estelle have been screaming for service for years. Serenity now! AJ
  14. I agree, but the shoe can be on the other foot... Any sensible pruning for your quotes? Any posts from an actual computer, not Tapatalk? Any reason not to remove your posts for trolling and/or laziness? AJ
  15. The answer is yes. And we have plenty of 8T8R discussion in the sponsor, Premier, and Honored Premier sections. AJ
  16. I do not get it either. And I do not think that grndslm got my former BP CEO Tony Hayward reference. But what I do get is that grndslm tried twice, still did not manage to post a working image, and never fixed the broken posts. AJ
  17. This is true. Consumers apparently do not care that T-Mobile has taken nine years and counting to overhaul its entire network. Or they do care -- just not that much. AJ
  18. No current Sprint devices support FDD carrier aggregation, only band 41 TDD 2x carrier aggregation. And FDD-TDD carrier aggregation will be a long time coming -- certainly not this year. AJ
  19. The truth is somewhere in the middle. Modern wireless data schedulers do not give every user equal priority. Rather, they try to maximize throughput, thereby giving greater priority to those with good signal, lesser priority to those with bad signal. If we were to examine "excessive users" up through "data abusers," I would bet that a great many of them are parked in crappy apartments near their serving sectors. That gives them good signal, hence a leg up on the other users in their sectors. If they had bad signal, they probably would not be "excessive users" or "data abusers" in the first place. They would have pursued other options. AJ
  20. Yes, it is true. I cannot last five seconds. That is exactly what your mother said last night. AJ
