Friday Acceptances(Not big, but a surprise for you St. Peters folk)

Finally! Hopefully it gets turned on early this week.

4G, 3G/4G, and red sticks-280/769=36.4%

 

3G-77/769=10%

 

RRU/Reported 4G-27/769=3.5%

 

NV Complete-357/769=46.4%

 

Just realized that when the 27 RRU/Reported sites get accepted the market will be at 50% complete!

Oh gosh, i hope we just don't stop there...

Anybody want to pitch in $5 to steveo so we can get him on something LTE? 10 people pitch in and we can get him a LG Viper as an early Christmas gift. LOL.

I guess he didn't want your old GNexus? 

Going to be on the sideline for a while. I'm having to use an old BB Curve for a while.

Oh no. What happened?

Could you get a better signal from it? 

Sure did. Looks like it got better on its own. Getting -95 to -100 now. Walk out back and get about -85.

Rock Road & Ashby is not broadcasting any LTE yet. Circled the entire site toggling on and off airplane mode.

Looks like it's working now.

Did i miss something? Did this get accepted? I haven't noticed any work going on, but then again they are sneaky.  Work right there on the Rock Rd, i should be able to see it if it comes on line. 

5 more TD-LTE(band 41) sites live!

Nice. What kind of speeds were you getting?

Well, I confirmed last night that the coverage in the dome is just as bad as the Rams playing football.

Which list?

All of the updates. I can look later, was hoping some one had it handy.

What's the link for the list again?

I wasn't serious when I said this if anyone thought I was

Shoot, how can i get my money back? 

I may donate on your behalf to get you to sponsorship level if you can drive around and get SCIDs.

I also may be able to loan you the device to you for a few days if you would like. 

Please do.

On a side note. How can towers get get updated to 4G but not have a 3G update? Wont the new equipment upgrade both at the same time? 

Well, thats the only device currently on the market that can pull HEX SCID's from band 41(2600LTE) sites. sbolen has the MiFi but that one doesn't report SCID's as far as we can tell. We know for a fact that the Zing will.

Sounds good. I should have one by early next week. Not sure how much driving around i will be able to do. I have been pretty busy lately. 

Is there a non sponsor place where we can see where the towers should be or ones that need confirmation? 

Anybody want to buy a Zing and a plan?

I can probably get one. What are you looking for? 

Where do the RUUs go? At the bottom?

A little off the topic, but is there a way to open up the map in the Google Maps App, that way i can see where i am vs how close the tower is? 

Thanks 

Oh I was here looking this way. Just making sure its the right site.

Yup, that's what I saw last night. There was the same truck there as well around 5:15 tonight too.

It's difficult to say for sure, but it does look like Sprint NV going up there on the top of the tower.

Yeah, pics suck. Damn Moto X. But you can see the RUUs that were not there the other day.

OK, I think we have progress now. Here are some pics from 94/Mozarkite. Guy was on the tower and I'm 99% sure this is the new NV equipment going up. I'm also not getting any signal from there at the moment, im pulling it from another site farther away.

Ok... KTRS just said phone Internet service in the dome for the Rams game was impossible. They didn't say what carrier, so how was Sprint service?

I was there for a preseason game and it was horrible. I was lucky to have 3G coverage at all. 

On the way home from work, Looks like there was some work going on at Page/94 and JungStation. Looks like it's a clear tower. Wish I had a new mifi to do some searching in St. Charles.

That's connected via wifi, too. If that was a direct connected modem, I bet that would have screamed.

I pass it every day twice a day and never see anything...

Dang, guess I better look closer next time. Didn't want to take a bunch of pictures of the guys working. That's kind of creepy.
