I have always had great reception anywhere and everywhere I've gone in the SFV. The only area I will not get perfect reception is north of Sesnon, but that's to be expected. I have plenty of friends who have different carriers and we all experience the same spotty coverage. It is not always FULL bars, but if I can make and receive calls as well as send and receive data extremely fast the amount of bars is completely irrelevant to me. I love Verizon and their coverage, would never switch to another carrier.

In this area only Verizon and AT&T has services and Verizon has better service.

Sprint is the only cell phone service that works at my house. I have tried Att, Verizon, and T-mobile. All give me dropped calls. Sprint is the only service that consistenly works.

reception always... very reliable only some parts of porter ranch have reception luckily, where I live, we do either 5 or 4 bars

I live in Porter Ranch and had horrible service with Verizon I moved over to Cingular and have full bars almost all the time. Service in the house is not as good as outside, but Verizon went dead in the house. Moved to Cingular, it helped me.

Sprint is the only service provider that we know of that gets service at my house. We had Verizon for a couple of years and did not get service. My father has AT and T and he cannot get service when he's at my house.

Barely Average in most parts of our house. Below average as you head north of Rinaldi. Slightly above average within 3 miles East, West, and South of home.

The Home Owners Association has lobbied $650K and still no cell site FTW.

Sprint PCS has fairly good reception everywhere except the following 6 block radius in Northridge: Corbin to Reseda and from Chatsworth to Plummer. Every time I'm driving down Tampa from the 118 to the mall my phone drops the call. Annoying! Other than that, Sprint is great, expensive but good. T Moblie sucks!

Signal constantly goes up and down from 0 to 4 bars (max) within a 1-minute period. Some incoming calls are lost, while others are kept; keep in mind that this is INDOORS facing South with a headset on. Overall, good to excellent service outdoors. Customer service is great, 411 is awesome, the Motorola phone is awesome, I just wish the indoor reception was a tad stronger so I can count on not losing a customer here and there (I run a business from the phone and some people lose patience because our call gets chopped up and we have to try and reconnect again). The free incoming calls plan has saved my bacon many a time especially when dealing with sheer volume of minutes used, and/or 'cell spam' advertisers or people I don't want to talk to. Although I will be trying T-Mobile this weekend, I can't seem to find a better provider, all have their limitations.
