  1. Interesting.... I'll have to see if there is any VZW equipment on the ground...
  2. Yeah, Terminology mix-up... That's the odd thing, I can't seem to find what other carriers might be using the site... I;m still digging though....
  3. That was my thought too, my confusion are these large RRUs, They were installed back in june.... But I should be able to better identify them after I get close tomorrow...
  4. Figured I'd toss this out and see what you guys think... This Picture is the tower in the interchange at I-270 & Main St (sorry for the grainy pic, I had to zoom since I was only about 30 feet from my house) Sorry picture won't flip upright... It's a little odd, The thicker panel in the center of the lower tier on the N,S,E & W side of the tower are new, (weren't there 3 months ago) They put them up in late june, wierd thing is Even though it's Columbus City there are no permits pulled for it, Are towers in the freeway right of way permitted differently? The picture is a bit crappy (had to zoom as I was only about 30 feet from my front door) but that center panel looks an awful lot like a samsung RRU, I'll try to get over to the tower tomorrow for a better look from below... I'm just curious what everyone thinks, Especially since fiber had been laid to the tower (I'll see about connection when I get close tomorrow...)
  5. A huge black hole... That would be awsome if it was a new tower, that area is nearly a blackout zone for sprint...
  6. I honestly haven't been to look at the tower recently but they were definitely laying fiber to it, I doubt it's connected backhaul though... I'll try to get over there tomorrow and get some pics... I haven't seen any signs of workers inside the tower gate since before the fiber started getting laid.
  7. I used to hate that when I worked up at Easton (at 31 Gifts warehouse) If I was in my office I was weakly on 1 tower but moving out onto the warehouse floor I would go dead until I picked up a different one... Inside ametal building I know, but still, If I still worked at that sight I would be anxious for 800 to get some reliable signal indoors
  8. Main St right at I-270 (it's right in the middle of the interchange there) CDMA Field test app gives it a BSID of 209 & SID of 4418... They've been running fiber around this area since the beginning of July on both main and broad st right around 270 on the east side... It's a 3rd party contractor (not TW or ATT branded trucks) but it's definitely fiber runs...
  9. I'm anxiously awaiting the I-270/Main St Tower LTE activation, I live about 900 Feet LOS from it, and data is still horrendous despite the recent upgrades, They have cabinets in, and they were running Fiber along Main St at 270 a few weeks ago, but I haven't been able to go look to see if the backhaul is in yet or not... Although they do seem to have the new panels in... I'm kind of hoping they are doing a 4 sides activation of LTE then lighing up the rest (1 North Side, 1 South Side, 1 West Side and 1 East Side) since that might mean that main/270 tower gets some early LTE love...
  10. I just got my 32GB shipping confirmation a few seconds ago... With UPS tracking #, but nothing is updated on the UPS site yet... Looks like they are shipping out today... I ordered a 32GB Pebble blue about 9am 6/5....
