Bad reception and very spotty 3g when a tower is that close kinda sucked. I'm seeing the LTE icon light up randomly now.
-
Pretty nice upgrade to the tower on Blackfoot and Watt. Here's before: https://www.dropbox.com/s/t8xasrlc6dm0jjy/DSC00254.JPG Here's after: https://www.dropbox.com/s/8o4oe8bzcwgmkfn/DSC01969.JPG

They couldn't fire up until all physical equipment was put up (cluster launch). Usually means 3g. 4g will trickle in when backhaul becomes available. Or something like that.

It's nice to see Citrus Heights with LTE. I saw a couple people working on the tower at Raleys again this week. Also, for a couple seconds, I saw the LTE light up on my phone at home. Does that mean the tower at Blackfoot and Watt is getting upgraded (haven't had a chance to take pictures of it lately) or is it one of the others around here?
-
It sucks I couldn't get closer. And I don't have access to a better camera. I've been away for a bit and didn't know they started putting different RRU's up. I guess it's time to catch up on what's going on.

Added some better quality pics of the tower in Citrus Heights. https://www.dropbox.com/sh/wnwg0rnczwsgmxt/HIM1gsDwtn

Yeah, I know the permit has been out for a while for that tower. The whole top looks completely different and I'm pretty sure that's the sprint one. I'll probably have better pictures tomorrow.

Tower on Sunrise and Old Auburn in Citrus Heights. First picture is from a couple weeks ago. Second one was today. I need to go back with a better camera. Hopefully tomorrow. https://www.dropbox.com/sh/wnwg0rnczwsgmxt/HIM1gsDwtn

This may be a dumb question, but I walked by a manhole cover today that said "sprint". Is that our sprint or something completely different?
-
There's a tower you can see between the trees down in that direction. It might not be sprint but it wouldn't hurt to check it out. Ill go see it on Sunday/monday to see if there's anything going on.
-
It's not that one, there's nothing on that one yet. From there, turn onto Watt towards Food Source and further down towards the Airforce base or the post office and you should see it straight ahead. It was around where I circled in red. That's why I asked if there were any permits out over there. Hopefully its a sprint tower.
-
Hey lilotimz, is there a sprint tower somewhere on Watt with a permit out? Maybe around Mclellan? I could swear I saw out of the corner of my eye someone working on a tower down there but I was turning onto Antelope from Watt so it was a bit far away. I won't be back up there until sunday probably but maybe Giantjay can go take pictures sometime sooner than that.
-
That's what I think too. And congrats on the new job. That's the only Best Buy I go to.
-
Sorry about that, didn't mean to create suspense or anything . It actually has nothing to do with the conversation you guys were having. Sent it through private messages but it had to do with his permit map for sponsors and Stockton.
-
Got something for you, might help might not.
-
Might be. I've been dropping down to 1x in and around Winco the past week.
-
I didn't notice anything different last night. I'm pretty sure the one on Blackfoot was normal since theres been nothing going on with it yet.
-
I noticed LTE around Saybrook and mapped it down Antelope to around Rusch Park. Speedtests were around 2-4 Mbps.
-
That's what I thought. I guess I'll go by again sometime next week.
-
Not 100% sure if this tower has been upgraded or not. Opinions?
-
As good as LTE is, I'm more excited by the fact that they are replacing everything in the New Vision upgrades. Better voice, 3g data, and LTE along with unlimited data. It's like a dream come true.
-
Link leads to error, but looking it up on antenna search the ones at the apartments came up as ATT and Cingular so yeah, It's probably at the fire station.
-
So either way, finding permit info will still be hard/impossible?
-
I thought it was the one by the apartments since that's where the recent network enhacements website from sprint points to. I haven't been down that way too often so I don't know exactly where any other ones are.
-
The first on is the one that's out in the middle of nowhere behind the Food Maxx right? I think the other one is in the apartments right after the Little Caesars. Any way to find their address? Yeah it is. That one looks awesome.
