Sorry NEWB here. But thank you Nuke! Yes I absolutely missed those spreadsheets and maps you linked 2nd! I'll repost there. Thanks again!

Which map? I've checked the NV Sites Completed Map and it shows the Scotty Dr Tower as 3G only. Not 4G yet. Also I looked at the NV Site Map for Nebraska/Iowa and all that shows are towers scheduled to get NV upgrades. Is there another map I missed? I guess my question is, from the screen shots, is it possible to determine what tower in specific I'm receiving LTE from? Kind of like how under 1x800 in Signal Check app it shows i'm connected to the Scotty Dr. Tower. and/or does the LTE Engineering screen shot provide/specify a "tower number" anywhere in that info provided that I can then come here to the S4GRU maps and compare? As far as I can tell the maps only give locations of the towers and not actual tower numbers or such. I only question which tower I'm receiving LTE from because I am probably about half a mile away from the Scotty Dr tower so my EVDO and 1x800 signals are always in the -64 to -70 dbm range and my newly received LTE signal is pretty consistently around -109 to -112 dbm. So that along with the NV Sited Complete map showing Scotty Dr tower as still only 3G makes me think I'm pulling LTE from a tower further away. I could be totally wrong so please correct me if I'm mistaken. Just trying to figure it out.

Okay so I'm finally getting "steady" LTE as in it stays connected and not the usual intermittent pop up. So I've attached some of my screen shots to see if anyone can make sense of it. My signal is a pretty steady 109-112 dbm but as you can see my 1x800 signal is coming from the scotty Dr tower and is great at a usual 67dbm. So from what I gather this lte signal isn't from the same scotty Dr tower? And if so can anyone help me figure out what tower I'm on given the screen shots? Thanks! SW side of Cedar Rapids

Okay thanks! Still new to alot of this so trying to pick up a few concepts and all. Thanks again for clearing that up!

Awesome! Great to hear! Thanks for the fast response. So basically all of Cedar Rapids will eventually have 4G. It's just a matter of time? Also thanks for the signature! Very informative. In there it says 800 and LTE get fired up together correct? And regarding that I have currently 1x800 signal from the Scotty Dr. Tower. Would that mean that tower is up and running both 800 and LTE or is it possible to only get 800?

Hey there, I'm new to the forum and this is my first post. Sorry if it has NEWB written all over it. I live in Cedar Rapids, SW side off Williams Blvd between 16th Ave and Wilson Blvd. I know for a fact we have limited LTE here in CR, weather sprint has officially announced it or not, but basically just I-380 coverage. Definitely not widespread CR. Looking at the Maps section with "completed" maps it has Cedar Rapids towers as mostly 3G with the few 3G/4G towers of which I can only assume are the ones that are meant to primarily cover I-380. So does this mean Cedar Rapids as a whole will only get these few 4G towers and the rest of the city will still be left without 4G? Or can we expect continued 4G implementation and the maps just cover the completed "steps" of each tower?
