People keep saying that but it will NOT Happen. Once Sprint deploys 5G they are pretty much using all of B41. LTE small cells have different carriers from macro sites then 5G .I think it is great. Tmobile realizes the power of 2.5 GHz mid band spectrum for 5G deployment since Tmobile does not have enough midband spectrum for capacity to serve the growing number of customers. If anything for some reason the Sprint/Tmobile merger falls through, Sprint should sell some of its 2.5 GHz midband spectrum to Tmobile to make full use of the entire 2.5 GHz band.

Do you know if Sprint is using the F block they got from USCC in Rochester Minnesota?They have already refarmed a lot of PCS for LTE. Most of America is down to 1 or 2 CDMA carriers.

Could be a mix of macro sites and Small cells. Small cells have different B41 carriers than macro sitesI upgraded to the Iphone XS max a month back and I have noticed much increased speeds when I have been on Band 41.Going through the updated field test (which is much different on XS Max than X), I was able to find all of the below.
EARFCN's:
39874- B41
40072- B41
40270- B41
41374- B41
On the iphone, it is too difficult to see if I can aggregate all 4 together but speeds in several locations in town, my iphone can reach 130 to 150 consistently. Downtown even during middle of day which has never happen. I wanted to know if any one else has seen 41374 lately?

That's not 13+25+25 is that? Don't know of any device that supports thatThis is the Neighbor list.https://imgur.com/gallery/JSiNxyG

Sprint got the C block out of the open mobile merger. They just need to use it[emoji4]. 15x15 @ 8615 includes the G block so it wouldn't be possible to aggregate that with the 8665 G block carrier.

Bet you wish I was right now. I think Sprint has enough for 20x20+5x5 and still some for CDMA[emoji4]

Nevermind I read that wrong [emoji57]I had to go back and look and yes 8615 is 15x15 not 5x5. They want the same one in Florida

Very wrong. Sprint has alots of complains about there upload. Some people have even left for another carrier over it. I have seen everyone else get 60 up before but not Sprint. Tho Sprint needs higher FDD channels to do that and so far they don't have any 20x20 and 15x15 is a small footprint. That's why they need to host Dish's spectrum if the merger does failThis is wrong.

If the merger fails Sprint needs to do something to host Dish's spectrum. For sure the 600 mhz and maybe even the aws. How would they fund that you ask? Dish pay for it then a MVNO deal on the Sprint network.The Snapdragon 855 has the X24 modem which does support 3xCA UL. Are the phones not coming out of the FCC with full support?The speed problems are solved just by having a larger dedicated channel at lower frequency for supplemental UL. Having 15MHz at 1695-1710 solves that. Maybe could even use it to increase the range of B41/N41?
Im not saying 35MHz UL would be bad or anything or not for 35MHz UL. But people don't UL as much as they think they do. Facetime, Duo, Skype, etc don't use as much data as people think they do. Sprint's UL is not at capacity. This is why UL on the other carriers FDD has plenty of speed behind it, even with the DL is slammed. The low speeds are a connection/time issue which on Sprint gives huge inconsistencies. 15MHz easily solves the low speeds, gives plenty of additional capacity and fixes consistency issues within B41/N41 coverage area.
But considering the DL capacity that is now available on these new massive mimo sites... what is another 20MHz.
But if Dish keeps this stuff to build out their network, they totally want all of AWS4 for DL.
Im working here with bands that already exist. AWS3 UL only exists in B70. If you went B23, 15MHz AWS3 gets orphaned off as B66 does not cover that range. Making it TDD would not be a good idea either because then the FCC and those adjacent will want guard bands, especially next to AWS1 UL. It also won't solve the issue that Sprint has with TDD unless a configuration is picked that makes most the airtime for UL. But then you are still wasting a lot of airtime for DL that isn't needed.

2x has been a thing for a while now. 3x up noSuperbowl is a great example. No matter how much technology they deploy, they are at a huge UL disadvantage reguardless. If just a few people can max out a 9Mbps UL, then 65,000 people should easily be able to kill Sprint's UL capacity. This did not happen.
What I find in my testing is B41 really needs a very good signal to pull in at least ok uplink speeds. I might be able to pull in 30~70Mbps DL but my signal isn't really that great so the UL suffers hardcore. A lot of times I'll just get 0.01Mbps on Speedtest. But if I can get close to the tower and get a nice clear signal I will be at 4~9Mbps. So my original 0.01Mbps is not a result of congestion.
It's the same effect of say a 5MHz DL channel. Close to the tower you get 22MBps DL, back up some and now you get 2~5Mbps. Same thing is happening on B41 but in the other direction and more pronounced due to lack of UL air time.
Has Sprint even enabled 2xCA and 3xCA UL yet?

Vzw is already deploying 3.5 equipment so they want itDish paid a premium for PCS H to extended the buildout deadlines of 700/AWS4. Money talks. Might be able to come to another agreement, especially if Dish is putting forth good faith and getting their protection site network built out.
TMobile would like more spectrum sure, but I think it is so much more than that. If VZW is comfortable with their position and twice the customers, TMobile should be able to do well. No other carrier than Sprit has huge chunk of midband for NR, especially spectrum that doesn't need to be refarmed. Sprint is doing just 40MHz in places, of which Dish has. Carriers are looking at 3.5GHz, but depending who bids and who gets what, there isn't really a lot of spectrum there to be had. Just that it will likely be cheap.
ATT doesn't have to put all their spectrum on air across the nation. TMobile isn't even doing it for new coverage areas. ATT even said that B14 was going to be targeted deployments and only added where the capacity was needed.

No back up generator or the storm knocked it outSo something interesting I discovered. Power was out in my mom's area today due to Hurricane Dorian. CenturyLink was down. What's interesting was she could only get a 1x voice connection. No data connection. As soon as the power came back her data connection came back. Thoughts?

Could find a 3rd party.But Dish has no money. How would they work with Sprint?

TMobile had to pause because they don't have ( other than B71) enough spectrum for 5G. They could refarm spectrum but then you would have to force people on 5G phones and not everyone is willing to upgrade when they cost 1000 plus dollars.

Hmmmm... Wonder if there’s any truth to this.
In this very positive article/review of the OnePlus 7 Pro 5G and Sprint’s 5G Network in Los Angeles, Sprint had no comment on its network plans beyond the 9 5G cities currently launched: https://venturebeat.com/2019/08/28/sprints-oneplus-7-pro-5g-lets-you-experience-2020s-typical-5g-today/?
Hopefully Sprint isn’t pausing.

Spectrum Omega still shows that Sprint has B block in MA and TMobile C block..Milford, MA

Which area was this at?Well Sprint only has B and G block in that area. They can only do 15x10 b25 at the max unless they just recently switched B block for C block with T-Mobile. That would give both contiguous 20x20.

No that makes it so you can't use those bands at all. It turns them offDoesn't that just set it so it doesn't use 25 and 41 as the primary carrier?

Ok then [emoji57]Well he said he turned b25 and b41 off so CA shouldn't be possible.
