  1. I'll be heading up to Sylva NC from Knoxville in the morning I'm gonna see if Newport and areas down I40 have any lte that hasn't been mapped yet. Sent from my EVO using Tapatalk 2
  2. That's what her white one was doing that day Sent from my EVO using Tapatalk 2
  3. I had to toggle airplane mode on my EVO to finally connect but I never could get my girlfriends evo to connect which is odd. She has the White evo and I have the black one.
  4. Was at exit 417 today and grabbed a speed test while I was there and mapped some more 4g towards Jefferson City which should show on sensorly soon. Sent from my EVO using Tapatalk 2
  5. They are behind schedule with the snow from last week but he didn't say how far behind. When I caught him he was checking to see if they could work that day at that tower and was leaving to go check 2 more Sent from my EVO using Tapatalk 2
  6. I stopped and talked to a crew here at one of the Knoxville sites I've been watching 2 days ago and they are about to finish the back haul of that tower within a week weather permitting. The NV cabinet is already in place as is the cables running to it I couldn't see if the ruus were in place yet but he said his crews were almost done with quite a bit of towers within this area of North Knox. So hopefully within the next few weeks we hopefully might see some of these towers coming online. Sent from my EVO using Tapatalk 2
  7. The tower I'm connected to is the one on Hutchinson Dr next to channel 10. There is equipment and pulleys on site that has been there about 3 weeks. It's a multi site so not sure if it's att or sprint working there right now. But all the equipment is on and around the sprint cabinets. Sent from my EVO using Tapatalk 2
  8. I know my 3g speed here in knoxville has dropped from about 1.4 to .60 the last 2-3 weeks I'm hoping that is a good sign for tower upgrades in progress. Sent from my EVO using Tapatalk 2
  9. Did you grab a speed test there off 417? I'll be out there Wednesday morning to check this if not. Keep hoping to see some in Knoxville come online soon I can tell its getting closer
  10. I did some digging through the last 4 months of building permits and found that this tower is a new uscc tower. I did find that the sprint tower behind the mall did have a permits issued in October for antenna upgrades. I have also seen a lot of the permit sites with workers on the towers so February is looking good for Knoxville if we don't start seeing towers come online soon. Sent from my EVO using Tapatalk 2
  11. Ok I understand now. What about those Grey cabinets behind that black barrel? Those are new I've never seen them before Sent from my EVO using Tapatalk 2
  12. <br />I posted a couple of pictures after those to show that this site is a sprint site. I checked on the network.sprint.com site, the cdma field test, and mapped the base station with Google maps. So your telling me nothing on that tower or on the ground looks sprint
  13. The previous tower I posted I confirmed today is a new nv site for sprint. Also here are the pictures of the site 2 roads down from me and the outside cabinets are new they were not there the last time I visited the site. Sent from my EVO using Tapatalk 2
  14. I've also noticed in the last 2 days 3g is randomly dropping out and coming back and so is my signal in Knoxville. I'll go from full service to no bars and back and not be moving. I'm not sure if that's a sign of them working on the towers around here or if Knoxville is just having problems Sent from my EVO using Tapatalk 2
  15. That's odd because I have a sprint tower 2 roads down from my house and there is not an exposed cabinet that I ever remember seeing. I'll take a picture of it tomorrow. Sent from my EVO using Tapatalk 2
  16. All the towers in Knoxville sprint or not have those types of buildings so there's no telling. If I get a chance to stop one of those guys over there ill see if I can ask and see who it is. Sent from my EVO using Tapatalk 2
  17. Someone is building a new tower at the corner of Washington Pike and Mall Road South in Knoxville. Not sure who it is though. Sent from my EVO using Tapatalk 2
  18. I've had that installed and using the drive mapping from Knoxville to Chattanooga and back daily hoping to see somewhere at least pop an lte site along the way. Sent from my EVO using Tapatalk 2
  19. I do know the lyrics and I'm not try to make this into a complaint board. Unless I'm mistaken I was the first to report that Knoxville was showing ePHRD from their towers. Sent from my EVO using Tapatalk 2
  20. I'm currently with sprint just replied to the comment about maybe if we paid our bills sprint would pay more attention. I left Us Cellular over a year ago to switch to sprint and have since then moved my family over also. As for the Knoxville never launching WiMAX I know it was never officially launched in Knoxville and that was my point. I can get my EVO 3D back out and drive out to west Knoxville and connect to WiMAX but west Knoxville was as far as it ever made it. I've been to Atlanta and used lte with my 4g lte and can't wait for it to make its way up. I drive for a living back and forth between Knox and Nashville and Knox and battlefield ga. So I'm here to try and help users in this area Knox when and where I find lte sites that are live. Sent from my EVO using Tapatalk 2
  21. Especially if they launch lte here like they did WiMAX and only cover about a 6 mile strip of west Knoxville and forgot about the rest of Knoxville. You couldn't even get WiMAX in front of the sprint corporate store in West Knoxville. Sent from my EVO using Tapatalk 2
  22. Maybe if sprint was more competitive in Knoxville they would have more people paying bills. We have AT&T, Verizon, T-Mobile, and US Cellular here all with faster 3g and Lte. And they all advertise alot more here then sprint. With both T-Mobile and US Cellular offering unlimited data please tell me why there's a reason for people to stay with sprint here.

  23. They are both closer to Nashville then we are. I sometimes think sprint sees Knoxville as a after thought. Almost like they are just here because the other big 3 are here. Sent from my EVO using Tapatalk 2
