ok the hunt is on...expect to see lots of towers until i find that B41...over the next few days gonna be on the prowl

I cant tell honestly with the quality of those pictures.  Doesnt look like it to me though.

What about the s.broad st tower??..the one of the smoke stack...did a speed test today while at big y and got 26mbps download almost 7mbps upload with 57 ms ping...and tech support mentioned either that tower or a tower in wallingford is undergoing a 2.5ghz LTE upgrade. I can upload the picture or i can upload some ithe pictures of towers once i can get some shots of em.

can anyone tell if the panels hangin off the side of the building are LTE or just plain 3G panels??

If i cant upload pictures no bigger than 431k...how do i post em??

The paddock ave site behind the church is not a sprint tower..although the one on top of the hotel next to I91 on east main st. Is.

cant post pictures...files are way to big...have shots of the hanover st. tower, s.broad st. and w.main st. was also gonna get 3 more locations tomorrow.

i have to admit i do like the size of the note 3 and it seems to have pretty good reception..compared to the 2 s4s i have on my account the s4 reception is slightly better...i was thinking about the m8 at one point but from having the m7 the camera is what turned me off..the camera on the note is so much better...but i was gonna be going around again soon to snap some pictures of the towers in the area again to see if there were any changes that have been made and post em..so expect some pictures soon.

I dont have a tri band device i have a note 3..im well aware of all the towers that have been upgraded and my address uses the tower in queation and i dont get any LTE at all at home and have to rely on my wi fi for any kind of data usage. If i did have a tri band device i would go look for that band and win the membership, as the membership robert gave to me for submitting pictures of current sites being upgraded has since expired, and im not in a position right now to purchase/donate for a membership. I loved having accesss to the info but priorities just doesnt allow at the moment

you are so right...unlimited data or not...i myself dont use more than 2-2.5 gb per month because i know how to manage data, just waiting to see what the note 4 and iphone 6 are gonna be about and then if the tower is not squared away by then im out..just like the rest of the almost 900,000 customers for q2. the only thing im not liking about verizon and att is that there is no way to shut off LTE if you want to and use 3g, they want you to consume more data but im no young buck to his first bbq.

Email from a Sprint Tech:

"I know waiting for LTE is difficult, and I'm always happy to provide any updates I can. The tower you are referring to near Hanover St does have plans in place to start LTE upgrades in the next 3 months. It starts with the 800MHz, and the reset of the upgrades are planned for the next 6 months."

Well banananuts you are correct...i talked to network support and 800mhz is starting like you said within 3 months and then 1900mhz and 2.5 ghz....wish they would start already data service is getting worse everyday.

thats a little bit weird because usually they start with the 1900mhz first...went by the building today and theres panels on the side of the building if i remember correctly werent there before...hopefully its case where the panels are there installed and just have to be connected and turned on...ill post pictures soon.

I do have a LTE device i have a note 3...and no LTE and im in the downtown area...your co worker must be getting hits off the s. Broad st. Tower then because the downtown tower on top of the hanover towers is not upgraded what so ever. I just got informed that the upgrades have been pushed AGAIN till december...deciding if verizon or at&t should be the way to go for a new carrier.

update on downtown meriden tower...now its been pushed out till december for completion...this has been going on now for at least 1 year almost 18 months now. this is insane because %78 of my usage is on this tower and when im home i have to rely on wifi for my phone to work, and this tower has been a problem since 2011...dont know about anybody else but im losing faith in sprint fast and i think i may have to start looking else where for a carrier.  

rumor has it downtown meriden is currently getting upgrades along with some other towers in the area..and is set to be complete by september, and spark is sappose to be popping up and HD voice fully underway. we shall see..not holding my breath..a rep said people should keep calling in and complaining and it may help move things along.

thats good to see...im gonna keep my eyes open to...we could use good news like that around meriden.

Has anybody heard any updates on the downtown meriden tower??...heard network vision is taking place and doing a bunch of upgrades is being done and once complete spark may be available...as other towers in the area are getting some additional upgrades.

I feel your pain..those speeds are usually normal and sometimes worse...i have been on sprint for 2 almost 3 years about it...but im gonna wait until the iphone 6 and note 4 launch and see what they are all about and by then the upgrades should be done and hopefully spark is on...if all fails then verizon bound i think i am after 11 years.
