Have had lots of luck with Verizon as far as reception until I bought a new LG 6000. Now I can't get reception anywhere in town without the calls breaking up or being dropped. I have had the software updated and had the phone in for repairs. As of yet the reception is still very poor.
Since April 2005 when I started my contract w Verizon, have had pretty good reception. Use my Treo for all calls. Do have some call break-up requiring repeat of words for call within half mile.
I had Sprint until the beginning of December and it was spotty at best (constantly losing signal). I found out that T Mobile erected a tower right behind Explorer Elementary School, so I switched. So far I have had no reception problems.
I receive poor reception in my home area.If I use an external antenna(Wilson Elec. magnate mount),I can receive excellent reception wherever I drive. I just can not use my phone at home. My friends have Verizon and T-Mobile and they have poor reception in this area.
If I use a magnet mount antenna(wilson electronics) on my car,I can receive excellent reception. anywhere in Colo Springs. I just can not get reception at home.
I regularly commute between Woodland Park and Colorado Springs. Reception in Ute Pass is OK, but spotty (as expected), but once in the clear, reception is good. I've had no trouble around most areas in the Springs. Reception inside my building on the NW part of town is good. Reception from the Springs to Ft. Collins is generally good. I get very few dropped calls. When they do drop, I notice the signal simply drops out completely - then pops back. This may occur when changing from one cell to another??
I get poor to no reception. I've tried 2 different phone and brands, no help. Ocassionally, I'll get a good signal then it goes away. Very sporadic Inside buildings, forget it
I have had ATT / Cingular for 3 years now. I get 1 bar at my house so the two Siemens phones I have are useless here. I get spotty reception around town as well. The only place I get great reception is at the many ski areas in the State. I am going to switch as soon as I can find a carrier that works in my neighborhood.
