Some interesting news maybe coming from Sprint soon.  Might be a way to keep up with the Technology in the new Tri-band phones that are right around the corner.

Its the site near Cheapies Tire on Broadway....you work for American Water?

Yeah..  Cheapies has been up for a while.. Tonight was the first night that I got a signal inside of the call center.  

When I first posted I thought maybe the Simmons Law firm site was up and running.   But on the way home coming up 67 I couldn't get anything but 3g until almost Homer Adams.   

Hi guys

Been out of town the last couple of days so this may not be new...

I work downtown Alton off of the Berm inside of a large callcenter.  Never had 4g inside of the building (not to mention to strong of a 3g signal)... Anyway tonight at work I am getting 4g... Here are some of the #'s that I am getting (sorry not able to post screenshot while here at work.

LTE Enginerring

PmmMode Idle

Mcc-Mnc 310-120

Serving Cell 92 Band 25

UL Chn 26665 DL Chn 8665

RSRP -110 RSRQ -9 Snr 7.2

TX Pwr 512 Dbm

Not sure where this signal is coming from.  I am real close to the Clark Bridge.  Had faint signals before while on the road (270 and 367) but never a signal like this. 

AMF onsite already this morning at the Alton site behind Lowes

It was on when I went to Delhi earlier. I had a very good experience with LTE today! From my office on Washington to Homer Adams all the way down to Delmar to Pierce Ln all the way to Stamper. From Godfrey Rd and Stamper all the way to about a mile or 2 north of the Montclair site. Cut off for about a half mile on Stamper. Sensorly mapped the whole way. White Castle site handed off nicely to the Gymnastics site. Gymnastics site handed off nicely to the Montclair site. It will be nice when the Lowe's site is finished(had cabinets installed last week btw) and Delhi and Jerseyville go from Red to Yellow.

Yes it will be nice 

Alton seemed to have a big area there in the middle where Sprint almost did not register.. (Around upper Alton and Alton Memorial)  it will be interesting to see how the new system improves that area.

Any news on the Bethalto and Rosewood Heights sites

4g was down for some time today in Godfrey.   

Drove by going toward Brighton and there was a White van at the Bethany and Montclair location.  Drove back by about 10 min later and white van was gone and 4G was back up and running..

Talk about a scare

Here is the screenshot from my house off of AIrport rd (behind city hall) in Godfrey

Also Wegman Electric was back at the site at Noon.. With one of the workers up on tower.

Where were you in relation to the site when you got this?

At my house off airport rd.

Do you need from different location

Sorry this took so long.. I was getting errors when trying to get into the engineering mode.

Serving cell 339 band 25 

This is for Godfrey site .. Bethany and Montclair

Will post screenshot shortly

Bethany and Montclaire

We have 4G Broadcasting in Godfrey at Bethany and Montclair.. Just pulled 11Mgs up and about 1 down.

You can see me setting in my front room on the map.. Time to go out and paint this map purple.

Montclaire and bethany in godfrey il cabinets installed panels/rrus onground

YES!!!  

Was starting to get worried

Work being done in Godfrey at the site off Montclair... 

We have 2 trucks from AMF at site and it looks like they are working inside the cabinets.  Not sure if this is work on LTE or not but thought I would pass it along.

Yeah I picked it up close to the bridge there and then lost it right after the water company. 

Really did not get a chance to stop as that area was already filling up for the fireworks.  

I was able to get a small 4G signal down at the base of the Clark bridge in Alton tonight... It wasn't very strong and I lost it pretty fast

Workers on site in Godfrey, IL again...panels and RRUs are on the ground. Guy said he did not know when it would be integrated.

Hi guys 

Long time reader here .. I am in the Godfrey area and can see the Tower that is right off of 67 and 255 (near the Walmart) .. Noticed that there was a White van and truck at that location on Friday. During that time I was getting the EVDO version A signal instead of the eHRPD signal.. Since Friday night it has returned to the EHRPD signal but instead of a full strength on my signal meter I am now only getting 1 to 2 lines on the meter and have had several lost calls.  If I understand correctly they are only upgrading the data and not the call signal... Could they be doing something else at this site.
