I have lived in this area for 2 years. I can say that I have had only few dropped calls in the time I been here. I get near perfect reception indoors... 4 or 5 bars out of 5 on the phone. I have only had a few dropped calls since I moved in this area. I think there is a Verizon site at the TV station by the engineering school. I have tried T-Mobile but the reception varies greatly inside on the phones I used (Nokia, Motorola), I have gotten anything from 0 bars / no service to 2 or 3 bars in my place and 4 or 5 outside. Calls usually garble in my apt. AT&T has full bars outside, but I only get 2 or 3 bars inside along with garbled calls indoors and outdoors.
I've been using Cingular / AT&T for many years. The coverage has only gotten better. I've only experienced one dead zone in Tallahassee and that was off Apalachee Pkwy. in the Timber Ridge neighborhood. No service is available in that location, but move out onto Apalachee Pkwy. and reception comes back. Making trips out of town have been a joy with AT&T. Service is good as far west as I have been (Gulfport, MS) and as far east as I have gone. (Jacksonville / St. Augustine) Those who state they have had trouble with AT&T service, beware, they may just have an ax to grind. As far as I am concerned, service could not be better.
I've been having trouble with Verizon in this area, yet when I get out of my neighborhood I don't have any problems with making calls. I don't get it. The bars are up it just won't send or receive calls and my phone says it can't connect.
Two bars if the wind blows. Very disappointed with AT&T, Sprint, Verizon, T-Mobile and Alltel. This location is home to several thousand homes within a 2 mile radius, but the towers at so far away that this prime residential area lacks cellular coverage. If the major carriers but towers near the Catholic church, they would see more use of the service and put the local phone carrier out of business! But, it must be hip to be mediocre.
have been happy Alltel customer since 2005, then about a month ago began getting "searching for network" and "roaming messages and no service. have called to report problem 5 times now and and am afraid I will have to change service if problem not resolved this week. strange to have such excellent service then no service1.

In my neighborhood, close in on North Monroe Street, reception is terrible. Lot's of broken up conversations. A land line is a must. There is an old TV tower on North Monroe, between Bradford Rd.and John Knox Road, and that may be the cause of the problem... .
Never Drop a call, Never have a problem, Phone only roams when it's in my pocket going under an expanse of trees. better the phone you have the better your reception will be
