Sprint relocated site

Indeed, pretty sure band 41 hasn't been deployed on that tower yet, probably has to do with the backhaul like you mentioned. -

Yea small world man, the fastest I've seen from that tower is around 25mbs down and 9mbs up on band 25. Im extremely happy it was such a coincidence when i moved into our house that sprint tower was right around the corner lol. -

Im from pearland as well, The LTE Coverage here has vastly improved over the past 6 months. I wondered how long it would take them to get it going around 288. I live close to the Foodtown off 518 and very fortunate to be right in the middle of two towers. I did find it funny that im starting to connect to Band 26 over band 25 at my house, I would have close to -90DBM inside my house. -
Lol, the same could be had if they were in a LTE area.

Well after alittle digging I found out the Tower with the single set of antenna's on it is registered to New Cingular wireless and the tower with the mutiple antenna's is registered to T-Mobile. New Cingular is now AT&T eh ?
-
I uploaded the new pics, I know there not as good as this guys, but its a start. You have any idea what the rest of these panels are Digi ?
-
Here are the updated photos, hope they help.

Here are some more that i took this morning, I forgot my Digital camera at home again so i took pictures by the fence, also notice there is another spot for a Monopole to be installed. That has been there for atleast 6+ months since i looked back there, im assuming Sprint had plans to be at this site or the managment company put it there with the intentions of leasing it out ? There is a AT&T sign on the fence, below that there is a Orange tube that has "T-Mobile Site Plans" on it so atleast T-Mobile and AT&T are on this site. Anyways, here are the pictures. I'll do my best to remember my camera tomorrow lol.

Roger that, I donno why when i was viewing this video on SBASite.com i thought it was the other way around. Incase anybody novice wants to check it out, its a very nice overview video of how a Site is managed with alittle technical info as well. http://ir.sbasite.com/#

Will do digi, but no way from my EVO LTE lol. I'll take some pictures tomorrow morning with my Canon.
-
lol, looks pretty messes eh ? Im assuming the Red Lighting bolt drum thing is a Microwave backhaul ?
-
I was under the impression that the higher the frequency the larger the panel ? If not, i stand corrected.
-
I took a few pictures of two towers side by side near my work that i see every morning when I stop at the Valero, I believe the tower with the single set of panels is owned by T-Mobile and the tower with way to much stuff on it is owned by Clearwire. I believe what im looking at is T-Mobiles 4g HSPA+ Panels on the single tower. On the other tower Im completely lost. My question is one of these towers is slated to recieve LTE, My question is what should i look for when they start with the upgrades ? Also this tower is * for those who have access to the maps.
-
Yes the Interactive map in the sponsor section is what im referring to when im trying to locate the tower. I'll start up a new post in the Sponsor forum for further advice.
-
Indeed I have, also have up to date PRL. The connection is all kinds of weird. Another example is I work at Johnson space center off of 4th street and per the diagram in the sponsorship forum there is no live LTE tower near me I should be able to connect to, Yet Im connecting to a tower that is supposely onsite that I have physically searched for and haven't found. Its almost like my building has an antenna on top of it that I don't know about lol.
