Frankly, I doubt very much that he's an engineer, at least not a


graduate EE.




If and when you do get a decent 4G connection, you'll like it a lot.


We were on Long Island Sound with the trawler in the summer of 2011.


4G was just beginning to roll out in many places and service was very


spotty in some areas, even close to NYC. This year I've been getting


pretty good 4G service just about everywhere but there are probably


still a few problems.






I am somewhat of a special case too... Everywhere I want to get any


service, is usually a place where nobody is Motocross tracks for


racing seem to be out in the boondocks, almost across the board just


because we need to avoid the "green monsters" and try to do our thing


without otherwise inconveniencing others... This being the case, from


what I have seen so far, Verison is the service most racers I know use.


I have a VM cell, which is great but never get any service, and we have


the sprint mobile connector for internet, which is the one I was


addressing earlier. At Unidilla, it was useless...




It comes from the same damned place! Same tower!


Bull****. In some cases they may share towers, but for the most part Verizon and Sprint maintain separate towers.

Where do you come up with this stuff?


The guy is a ****ing asshole, that's where. I couldn't get out all
weekend at all, never got even one bar with my VM phone, coverage was in
and out all weekend at Sprint, mostly, say 90% of the time, no signal.
Folks who had Verison, and curiously enough, TracPhone, had perfect
coverage all weekend long... That is the fact. Jess and I didn't get any
bars for 18 miles in one direction over the weekend looking for gas and
ice, and on the way in and out (from the other direction) 12 miles till
we could make a call with VM...
