Mission 1100's, South of New SOMAGrand and New Tri / Between 7th and 8th Streets, San Francisco, CA 94103 Mon Aug 17, 2009

Since the SOMAGrand and first Trinity Apt. Tower went up, AT&T reception has diminished considerably. Both Palm Treo 650 and new iPhone 3GS reception are awful. Am considering a booster for the building. The Clear Voice 800 or jdteck devices. They run about $200 - $300. Anyone have experience with these?

I work on the corner of Mission and 13th and the AT&T reception is horrible! Everyone at my office complains about how their AT&T phone don't work at all in theis building. And outside, I can only get edge at best for data speed!

Ironic that coverage always drops for me at this intersection... there is a Sprint Store across the street. But never fails, reception here sucks.

Upper Noe - Sanchez / And 29th St., San Francisco, CA 94131 Mon Aug 10, 2009

Signal strength is spotty in my 1st fl apartment and around my building. Out on the street the signal gets decently good, however, the data network (edge) is unreliable. Additionally, both voice and data reception is hit and miss all the way on the inbound on the J train from Upper Noe at least to the Castro.

Reception just got horrible over the last week or so. Sprint said they fixed the antenna but it doesn't seem to have any change. I used to get 3-4 bars in my house now I get 1 bar with 95% of my calls being dropped!

I can connect one in three or four calls if I stand near the window. Data is even more spotty.

Terrible! The service is awful everywhere in this city. Get AT&T only if you are a) not relying on cell service for business b) nostalgic for the land line days because you will need one c) a masochist. I only wish I didn't sign up for that two year contract.

Intermittently fuctuates between 1 and 2 bars; using the phone as modem is impossible.

In the Richmond District, I basically teeter between no reception and one bar (on Edge). I rarely land on 3G and when I do, it is usually when I am downtown or driving down 19th Ave through the Sunset District. AT&T is disappointingly unreliable; I wish I could switch carriers but I'm tied to this 2-year contract. Avoid going with AT&T if you plan to live in the city.
