Oh, okay.

What I think data capacity is more cdma carriers? 

8 data capacity upgrades showed up last night across ABQ. this will make it more difficult to find the new accepted towers.

Thanks Robert. I thought all iPhones pinged the towers. That should make it a big enough problem for a priority fix.

600MHz to 700MHz does not = 100MHz? how does it come out to 126MHz? does it go up higher in the frequency band or lower down into the 500s?

 

 

so confused.....

So has anyone else have problems getting an incoming call while on LTE? They just turned it on here. At first I had no problems. It seems to have started with the b41 upgrade. Sprint care was no help, says I have to wait for the upgrade to finish and then my phone will work. Not sure I buy that.

$257 on ED 1500 with five lines and a 23% employer discount.

Getting porked. Hahahahaha hudt in times for valentines.

He did say they are currently working ABQ and Hobbs and El Paso.

It doesn't surprise me about El Paso.  That is the only growth in the time being that Sprint has.

Did you just say B41? We're in New Mexico correct?

I have a feeling they have been around ABQ as well.  I need to do some research this weekend.

After doing some mapping I think I am wrong on the tower outside of Holloman AFB transmitting Band 25.

Looking at network.sprint.com, it looks like just one of the towers were upgraded to LTE. Hopefully Band 26 for you as well.

Happy camper?

I'm beginning to think there were tons of towers ready in New Mexico and an integration team showed up and is running everywhere and turning on towers.

Both towers are broadcasting Band 25.

Thanks.

We have LTE band 25 in Alamogordo.. . Test is from inside my home. Faster then my DSL. Can you not map from sensory in IOS?

Can you pin point what site it is?  I know there are only two.

No mapping iwth iOS.

They'll probably have to strike a deal with usc and cspire but not impossible.

Hence my point. I should have been clearer. They will not be able to manage their own network.

What you reference would be the same (in essence) program Sprint is doing through the CCA and RRPP programs. 

Always nice to see a TMO person use a Sprint program which was bashed by all of the TMO fan base...

Does this mean getting 800 onto the GMOs too?

I want to know this as well.

That's because there's an imbalance in the low band spectrum allocation. Once TMO and sprint have nationwide 5x5, att vzw arpu will come down.

 

In japan spectrum is not auctioned off it's awarded based on national interest.

TMO will not have a nationwide 5x5 network. For them, that is impossible. For Sprint that may be finished by next year.

The Japanese regulator has a different word for Japanese carriers:

I am sorry but any cellular network in the world is an oligopoly.  High barriers of entry with intensive capital investment going forward. This is plain and simple.

In addition, a standard plan is $55 a month. I'll take that. We don't even have an average with 4 carriers

Check out how much dividends, share buybacks att vzw have for 2014.

There's a plenty to go around.

Besides, if sprint TMO had merged l, less likely you would've gotten the $50/60 unlimited plan

Thank you for proving my point.

With Sprint not investing into the network until 2011 due to insufficient profits, bad prior decisions, and a lackluster business model, consolidation is the most common variable (i.e., JP Morgan 1900's).

There is plenty to go around, but the "go around" is with the big two. To obtain those customers, consolidation was logical. Since that didn't happen, your point of $50/60 is valid. Sprint's only option for 2015 will be a price differentiation. 

So this is why softbank wanted to be in a 3-carrier market.

These figures are insane.

This is profit sharing between the three carriers in Japan. Sprint and Tmo profits combined would have been able to compete on a level playing field against the duo.

Yep. And now you are seeing Plan B. No Hesse and a scrappy fight.

One of the pillars of our strategy was to merge Sprint with another player. That was the plan,” Son said during a press conference.

If I remember IFRS correctly, the impairment is shown in OCI which in the long run is a plug for the balance sheet.  Japan's markets are down in general over the last month.  If sprint has another quarter with additions for customers, see the stock rebound.

Long term I think the B41 intra band CA and then the b41-b25 CA where b41 serves as an additional downlink to b25 will go a long way to ameliorate Sprint's data problems. Sale of EBS spectrum should provide them with some cash for the upcoming 600MHz auction.

The more I read the 600 auction papers the more I believe it will not happen in 2016.  I think pico cells will be the future to a solid network.

Glad to see LTE in Santa Fe just in time for my move to Santa Fe for the legislative session. Check these speeds out!

Awesome. Did you see what band you were on?

I visited 6 towers today and all were broadcasting band 26 LTE. I will updating the ABQ Market premier thread with he exact towers and reports for other towers will be posted.

Frontier is bad. That's why I say look out.

Sorry as I need to clarify. The wireline was a large part of Verizon's business and bottom line. That is what is puzzling about this sale. Yes frontier is bad.
