  1. Not meaning to necro a thread but had some information on what the original poster was looking for. I recently got the S4 (I has an Epic 4g). I had previously bought the Wilson Sleek 800/1900 MHz car amplifier for my Epic 4g, and since I had heard that Sprint's 4g LTE works on the 1900 MHz range I decided to try it out. Sure enough, I gain about +10 dBm when I use it with my phone. It helps stabilize the signal as well, so I stay on the 4g LTE network instead of fluctuating to the 3g and back (since I'm in a "fair" area of 4g LTE coverage.) Right now my signal is reading about -76 dBm, 8 asu with 5mbps/2mbps going on. Without it I would be around -86 to -90 dBm and around 4 asu. I'm in an area with LOS issues to the tower and am about a mile away from the tower as well. Hope this helps. I don't know anything about the Wilson being 5 MHz off or anything; I just know that it helps me with my 4g lte phone (and it's not WiMax as LTE is only offered in my area.) P.S. If you are trying to use the LTE to replace your home ISP, you can check out Wireless N Wifi. They are a Sprint reseller and have a Unlimited 4g LTE data plan for like 80 bucks a month, but with a semi steep startup fee/modem deposit/modem purchase. Unofficially they want people to stay under 100 gigs a month though.
