Cellular Phone Forum / Providers / Sprint PCS / October 2004Service in LA...
Hey gang. First let me say how much information is on the newsgroup...it is required reading if you are a Spintpcs customer. My question is on coverage...I know that about a year or so ago the coverage in LA was way overloaded and it was a ton of complaints about it here on the site. Next week I am going out to Disneyland as well as Knotsberry Farms. Can anybody out there or anybody that has been there tell me how the coverage is now?? Thanks, Steve B-more > Hey gang.

I am at the Sony Studios as well as paRamout . I have never had a dropped call or a PROBLEM I'll disagree on the coverage being way overloaded in LA. I've never seen or heard any evidence of that (unless you're referring to 4-6 years ago when coverage was hit or miss). With that said, coverage at Knottsberry Farm should be fine as there is a tower right across the street from the park. Disneyland might have some weak indoor coverage but outside should be fine. > I'll disagree on the coverage being way overloaded in LA.

It should actually all be fine (but the last time I was at Disneyland was about 18 months ago)...  SignatureJustThe.net Internet & New Media Services, http://JustThe.net/ Steven J.

I have three kids. I actually forgot that Sprint added that new site on a nearby Edison tower about 2 years ago so yes coverage should all be good now. Thanks for the info one and all!!

No signal inside the ESPN Zone at Downtown Disney, though. SignatureRick Moree >> I'll disagree on the coverage being way overloaded in LA.

My office is in LaPalma and I drive through Buena Park so you shouldn't have a problem. > I'll disagree on the coverage being way overloaded in LA.

Signaturebtooth brought to you by http://www.wifi-forum.com/ Was I asleep last year? Were there a ton of complaints about network overload? My experience has been that the Sprint network has done nothing but improve since they took it over from Cox. Sprint users kept asking for better coverage, and got it. But the only capacity complaints came from Cingular customers after the SBC takeover. Or did I miss something?

Bill, Sprint has never had any issues with capacity overload here in the LA area. Coverage issues (lack of signal) a few years back yes. capacity no. |
