Reception dies travelling northbound Salmon Falls from Green Valley. No reception along Salmon Falls until you get to area of Pilot Hill. If you need to call 911, expect to knock on a residents front door for help. Reception is horrible to zero for all carriers.

Coverage has gotten worse to worse. Just about every call dropped today. I almost threw my phone out the window. Nextel says it's my phone. The service center in Folsom said it's the network as lots of people are complaining about the same thing. I'm so f-ing sick of it. I NEED cell coverage at my house!

Cell reception has improved significantly from the ATT Wireless cell phones. The phones ring and can talk clearly 80% of the time. No service while you travel on Serrano Pkway near Silva Valley and points east.

I get the fluctuating Bar syndrome. No Service to 5 bars. Changes by the moment. I think that a class action law suit to bring the cell phone service providers to the table would be appropriate. Where are the attorneys when you need one?

Phone calls frequently dropped.

Never more than 3 bars and I live on top of one of the highest hills around. Need more sensitive receiver at cell tower.

We got two "free" LG1300s with 2 year contracts through Cingular... what a huge mistake! Neither phone gets more than 1 bar at home, AND half the time THEY won't connect long distance calls at all. Cingular said they would exchange the phones for the same model... so we said sure... the new ones don't work either. Cingular won't allow an upgrade until the contracts expire in 2006 / 7, except by paying full retail (min $130 / ea) for new phones OR cancelling the service for $150 / ea. The only fix I can think of is buying "unlocked" GSM phones. Anyone considering Cingular as your provider... BEWARE!

goes between 4 bars to nothing with o moving around in the house, very strange. can not get most of the calls while at home.

Can maintain signal by not moving indoors or by being on a high hunk of ground. Typically phones shows excellent signal, will drop call with no notice. Likely the phone can hear the celltower, but the cell tower can't hear the phone, as it's so far away with a smaller transmitter (especially when you are on top of one of the many hills and reception looks great).
