So I just got home from work and saw my phone had full bars, I get between 1 and 3 more on the 1 to 2 side ussually. And it was staying at that for a while and I was not roaming. I looked at my dbm and it was -74dbm it pretty much hangs around -94 to -102dbm on average. I hope this is a good sign of things to come. Sent from my SPH-L720 using Tapatalk 2

Looks like the Kings are staying in Sac town! I also got some other good news today looks like I have a job lined up for radio technician ads soon as a position opens up. Which will hopefully be by the end of May, but really could be any day. Today was a good day. I really hope I will be working on the Sprint towers seeing how it will be fairly close to my house, but it doesn't really matter I will do anything and go anywhere.

I spoke to my friend and he spoke to his friend. And there's not much I can say other than the whole lte deployment is happening and under way. We should see lte popping up here and there by June or July. Not much else to say, I know some specifics but I don't want to get into them. I know 3g is getting better around me and everything will get really bad before it gets better. Just remember if you see our notice no service or abnormally bad service near you late at night, that's a good sign. <img src='http://s4gru.com/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='<img src='http://s4gru.com/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' />' /><br /><br />On another note anyone hear about Dish offering Sprint 25. 5billion to buy us. Sounds pretty good actually. http://dealbook.nytimes.com/2013/04/15/dish-network-makes-25-5-billion-bid-for-sprint-nextel/

Just throwing this out there with all this talk about Sac, I hope everyone here is fully supporting and contributing in some way to help the Kings stay here. Our city has lost a lot of jobs between all these big companies that have left recently Campbells soup, Comcast, Hostess, I don't think our, or my city will do so well if we lose our Kings. Even if you just click to like stuff and share stories of people like Carmichael Dave and the Playing To Win Tour, it helps. I'm going to the last game of the season April 17th, and I truly hope just the season. Sorry for the little rant but this is something near and dear to me and I think economically it would be devastating for the UCV. See how I tied that all in, in the end. Lol. GO KINGS!!!!!

I spoke to my friend who is friends with a guy that works for Samsung and they are doing all the planning and ordering of equipment for LTE in the UCV its happening. And he starts with his new company Monday and I hope I will be very shortly too. Hopefully working on this stuff. It would be a great time to come in and learn from the get go on how to upgrade and overhaul everything to the new LTE standard. Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk 2

I am waiting to hear back. I had the interview 2 of my friends got jobs but they are already experienced radio techs/journey men etc. They are both going to bug the guy in charge of hiring that interviewed me, as am I. I would be a apprentice so they have to have a very experienced person to train me one on one. So I didn't expect to here back right away because they are crazy busy all the time. It will take them a bit to find who and when they can train me, I hope. It sounds pretty good from both my friends point of view though, so that's good. One of my friends also had some coworkers that got hired too, so hopefully they can all throw my name around. I did also apply at Sprint in the mean time though, I saw some postings for some local stores that just popped up. Lol. So I will hopefully be doing something with this stuff. I got some good info from the presentation they put on before the interviews. Pretty interesting stuff. Nothing about the ucv though, more general stuff about work they do and what not. I appreciate the thoughts and good wishes. I was unemployed for a couple years in the past and that was very tough. At least right now I am fortunate enough to have a part time job while trying to find something better. Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk 2

I talked to my friend today who works on towers for work and he said lte is being deployed now in the ucv, it will likely be 6 months before we see it though. I am turning in my resume Monday and I will hopefully be working for his company very soon. I will try and keep you guys informed about anything I hear. Sent from my SPH-L710 using Tapatalk 2
