From my house in Lynn Haven to Tyndall I get full reception, no dead spots.

I use a Net10 phone which rents towers from differ ent companies in different areas. In Panama City. I think is mostly Cingular but could also be others. I am pleased with the service ( averages $15 / mo for 150 min). But there are two big dead spots. From Star ave. and Old Bicycle Rd to 2297 and from there into Allanton. Also from Star and Hwy. 22 to 2297 and down to Allanton. Reception in Allanton and everywhere else in Panama City Area is great!

Live in Lynn Haven and normally get full bars. But even with that, my signal loses quality in the middle of a phone call. There is one spot on Hwy. 98, at Under the Oaks Park where my signal drops completely and I lose calls. That seems to be the only place where that happens though.

Nextel has many customers who live in this area. It is also the fastest growing area in the county. The East Bay LLC investment group has very big plans for this area, with extremely expensive real property construction. The question is, Will Nextel / Sprint wake up and put a tower up in this area? Alltel has one. I have to use Nextel for work purposes, if not I would still be with Alltel. Nextel placed a new tower on w 23rd street earlier this year. Why?? I had service on 23rd street already. How about placing some where they count. Constuction workers are Nextel's larges subscribers just for the quick ptt feature. They need service in this area more than ever. If you live in east Callaway, Do not buy Nextel.

I get poor reception on Tyndall AFB, and no reception inside my office. I have to go outside to make a call. Even if I do get through, I am constantly having dropped calls. The worst part is that the calls do not actually disconnect, so you keep eating minutes while not being able to talk. LOUSY CUSTOMER SERVICE!

Nextel svc on hwy 22 east of Callaway is poor. While on 2297, no bars but I have"service". Most calls drop. No svc in a house. East of Callaway heights, no svc all the way to and including Wewa. Nextel's reception and clarity dosn't even come close to my wifes Trackphone.

Get good Sprint signal throughout Callaway... Not sure why some complain about it. I've had Sprint for a loooooong time and it's still going strong! Apparently, WALMART is a problem for many people and carriers... .it's funny because I've been in walmarts all over this country and this one in callaway seems to be the only stubborn one! lol.

Poorest phone and service I've ever had. It only worked in a very few areas of Panama City and never worked from Tyndall AFB south and heading toward Talahassee was also a big zero,somewhat like the service!

Have to walk to end of driveway to keep a call. Pick up a very weak Sprint signal inside, that prevents digital roam mode 90 percent of the time. Phone is unusable in Sprint mode in house.

Great reception in and outside the house. Never any lost calls.
