I was in Covington today, on the Pike St ramp I got 74.85 down and 12.72 up. All 6 bars (-86dbm) And band 41 is a TDD network (I believe its the only TDD LTE in the US, correct me if I'm wrong) which should allow more consistent speeds even with heavy network traffic.

The band 41 speeds are truly incredible. I mean you can't get those speeds on any other carrier with that weak of a signal. I can get about a -120dbm signal and still manage 8-10 down. Can't wait til all of this is officially deployed and the equipment is fully upgraded

I hope so as well. I let go of VZW's lte two months ago and switched to Sprint, so in some ways I did a temporary(at least I hope) downgrade, and I can not tell you how much I miss LTE, so I am hoping it will not be to long before lte and I reunite under Sprint lol. Keep us posted and if you are ever across the river into Covington throw some speedtests this way, I'd like to see where we stand here. 

I head into Covington off and on, I'll probably be there in the next week or 2. I'll run some speedtests when I'm there!

Let's hope the speeds are here to stay..I've been waiting 2 years for this lol

I managed to rack up 10GB of data usage last month with that. I'm at 6.5 so far this month and have 15 days left...most of my usage is all Speedtest and Sensorly. But the band 41 speeds are incredible. I consistently get over 50, even with just 1 bar.

Putting my M8 in LTE only mode I managed to get quite a few speed tests in the 60-70 range on band 41 on the west side in the Delhi/Covedale area. This was on Glenway Ave. Tower on N Overlook nearby is putting off band 41.
