  1. Funny cause I wouldn't think that driving just two blocks from where the Oscars are being held And couldn't catch any 4G. This was this Friday, hopefully it was a glitch and got fixed.

     

    I'm not one to typically watch the Oscars at all, but I've had it on since the start and have seen many Sprint commercials already. I'm kinda surprised to see so many!

  2. Oh wow, Good Job.  If Sprint Takes over most of the Uscc towers in northern IL.,  Network would be bullet proof..  

     

    Update: Looking at Google Map again it looks like the Container has been there for a while.  Not sure when its dated. But I doubt I'm that lucky for Sprint to use that tower.   

     

     

     

    If you ever make it to Marengo, Check on a tower for me.   Last time I was there I saw a big storage container a lil away from the Uscc tower. Didn't see any work being done. Didn't know if it belong to the owner of the house or what.  But would be a perfect location to add service. I live 5 minutes from there but currently in AZ and have no idea when I'll be back home.  Link is below if you have time...

    Yea! All new sites will have 800/1900 antenna and a TDD 2600 band 41 antenna for every new site :D, I found another uscc converted site in Hampshire last night. For premier members, This one and new site in Hampshire are on the maps already in the premier section. I know we don't have as many people as we use to, who come on the Chicago boards. But Chicago market is becoming a fun one to watch all the new progress :D

  3. Had Pretty decent LTE service at the base of the tower. But driving in Burlington didn't really seem better.  I forgot to check if the meter was running. I think its still being worked on. That tower was sorely needed and its really good to see Sprint adding additional towers to some very sore points.   Here's to hope they also use the US Cell tower half a mile from me in Marengo. Service Sucks in and around my house and Att wont give me better the 3megs on Dsl.   :)

     

    Cheers

    Is this site live yet, or still under construction?

  4. One would think that should have been the case long ago.  Whats the purpose of having 100 megabits speeds. Then walking two feet to the left and having no service.  They also need to turn up the power on 1900 Lte. Its just too weak. Two blocks away from the Tower and barely be hanging onto a signal.  Well at least now the CEO is aware of the problem.

  5. B&V is used for Network Vision.  As to the extent I couldn't' tell you. I remember hearing they where helping Samsung.  But, its been a while since my buddy told me any information.  

     

    Only Samsung NV correct?  Not sure if ALU is using them..  If Sprint had used Black and Veatch for the whole NV project from the beginning, would it been possible Sprint could have been on schedule?  This is assuming Sprint did not use them.

  6. Wow, such a disappointment.  My call success rate hovers around 50% at home and not to include Wifi calling on this update is really sad.  Honestly,  no excuses especially since the LG Flex has it and essentially the same internals.   Network vision needs to be finished already.  

  7. NSA, your being monitored :)

     

    Yes. I had to turn off a setting, but I can't remember which one that fixed it.

     

    I also run into where my G2 will freeze and once it unfreezes the background changes to the factory background. Its happened on two different G2s....
