Sprint Super Bowl Coverage/DAS
WiWavelength replied to RedSpark's topic in Network, Network Vision/LTE Deployment
If we are talking COWS -- as directly quoted in RedSpark's post -- then Kim Kardashian is relevant. But if we are talking COWs -- aka Cells On Wheels -- then, no, Kim Kardashian does not apply. AJ -
Sprint Super Bowl Coverage/DAS

Was Kim Kardashian there? She was at least in a Super Bowl TV commercial. Does that count? Oh, snap! AJ -
Sprint Super Bowl Coverage/DAS
WiWavelength replied to RedSpark's topic in Network, Network Vision/LTE Deployment
Alright, people, cut out the Super Bowl celebration posts. This is the coverage/DAS thread. If you want to talk Gisele uploading pics of Tom after the game and how she was using AT&T, Sprint, T-Mobile, VZW, or Wi-Fi, that is fine. But many find both the Patriots and the Seahawks to be nauseating. So, take any gloating to a general thread. Here, it is off topic. AJ -
Sprint Super Bowl Coverage/DAS
WiWavelength replied to RedSpark's topic in Network, Network Vision/LTE Deployment
No, Wi-Fi is not a "cop out." That is a foolish assertion to make. Wi-Fi is a necessity. For background, the University of Phoenix Stadium is the first DAS that I have ever heard of employ so many sectors. Most DAS designs that I have encountered in the past have used just a traditional one, two, or three sector approach. That is true of many arenas/stadiums around the country. The 48 sectors are a step in the right direction, but they are still too few. NFL mandated, enterprise grade Wi-Fi, on the other hand, uses hundreds of sectors, each of which typically has deployed two or more 20 MHz channels: one 2.4 GHz and at least one 5 GHz. Cellular cannot and should not compete with that sector density and bandwidth. Wi-Fi will do the heavy lifting. AJ -
CellularInfo for iOS: Beta Released (was Coming soon)
WiWavelength replied to nahum365's topic in Apple/iPhone/iOS
Just FYI, mikejeep holds at least the de facto trademark on "SignalCheck" for a mobile app. So, no offense, but staff must consult and decide how to handle this thread. AJ -
Sprint Super Bowl Coverage/DAS
WiWavelength replied to RedSpark's topic in Network, Network Vision/LTE Deployment
University of Phoenix Stadium has a massive enterprise grade Wi-Fi network. This is now an NFL mandate for all teams -- and no stadium is going to host a Super Bowl without exceeding that mandate. So, anybody with a smartphone who has a bad cellular network experience at the Super Bowl only has his/her own ignorance to blame. Cellular DAS is nice, but in many ways, it is a solution late to the game. Stadium Wi-Fi is taking over the heavy lifting at NFL venues. AJ -

iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus User Thread
WiWavelength replied to COZisBack's topic in Apple/iPhone/iOS
Even 20 years later, the "Seinfeld" clip is a humorous commentary on use of technology -- especially among older people. To this day, I bet there are plenty of iPhone owners who use them to make phone calls, calculate tips, and that is about it. AJ -

Make sure your iWillard has no 7 key. Otherwise, it is defective. AJ -
iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus User Thread
WiWavelength replied to COZisBack's topic in Apple/iPhone/iOS
Who needs a tip calculator? How hard is it to do the math on 15-25 percent in your head? That is what I do. But I know that will not go over well with you iPhoners. So, just get a Wizard -- or a Willard. AJ -
Congratulations, Northern Michigan BEA058. You have officially the least desirable AWS-3 license among all 50 states. With a provisional winning bid of only $8400 for the AWS-3 A1 block license, even S4GRU membership probably could have raised enough money to win you. AJ

T-Mobile LTE & Network Discussion
WiWavelength replied to CriticalityEvent's topic in General Topics
Maybe I am biased from the Kansas market, but we are seeing urban, suburban, and rural band 41 site adds right and left. And to paraphrase now deposed Bob Azzi, "This dog can hunt." Yet, this time, it is true. With the current infrastructure, band 41 has serious propagation. Meanwhile, Magentans are full of shit with their four year old WiMAX and "wet paper bag" jokes. So, I am less concerned about any band 41 densification. Just continue to put band 41 on most/all Sprint sites. AJ- 4,425 replies

T-Mobile LTE & Network Discussion
WiWavelength replied to CriticalityEvent's topic in General Topics
Uh, yeah, I quoted that post. I read it. It is vague with regard to the term "expand" -- especially in context of the danlodish345 posts earlier today about "expansion." Thus, I sought clarification from Ryan. AJ- 4,425 replies

While "Adrian" does contain the name "Ryan" -- that is, if you spell the latter differently -- you need not clarify for him. Let him speak for himself. AJ- 4,425 replies

T-Mobile LTE & Network Discussion
WiWavelength replied to CriticalityEvent's topic in General Topics
Ryan, "expand" upon that -- pun intended. I am not sure how someone can state that Sprint is in worse position than T-Mobile, so clarify what you mean by "expand." T-Mobile has no low band spectrum across most of the country. And that is not going to change for at least several years. On the flip side, Sprint does. Is the T-Mobile mid band spectrum advantage your point? Absolutely, T-Mobile has greater total PCS plus AWS-1 assets. But what does that mean for expansion? Is it the "wideband" virtue? That is highly variable for T-Mobile. Yet, Sprint has more than sufficient band 25 spectrum to "expand" 10 MHz FDD across most of the country. AJ- 4,425 replies

Wait, when did Muskegon move across the state to "SE Michigan"? Oh, I remember. You are not actually in Muskegon. That is your false front. AJ- 4,425 replies

Is that how you treat your phones? Get inside her back, then ask for her number. But I bet you never call her again. AJ -
