very bad reception - no service indoors.

US Cellular claim to have a tower in the area 103rd and Lawndale. It seems that it works well outside my property only until we get inside is there many problems. I have a National Plan which allows me to roam and while using Sprints network I have 5 bars inside my home!

Have tried using voice, minimal reception, constant drop calls, wouldn't think that would be the case 47 floors up with a wall of windows looking West. Data appears to be delivered on a different frequency as my emails seem to be delivered no problem.

Great Reception using a low end phone

Great Reception and great access to all high speed services. Only occasional fades, but not lost calls around train station.

have never seen more than 3 bars, even outside. reception barely penetrates inside the house. frequent dropped calls.

on street ok, but dropped calls, on first floor apartment and get no reception

Everyone must remember the following... 1) Transmission Technology exists in only two forms CDMA (used by Verizon / Sprint), GSM (used by all others). CDMA is a more reliable technology. 2) Brand of phone makes a big difference (switching brands while staying with the same carrier can be significant) My Treo with Verizon works perfectly everywhere.

Constantly dropped calls by the lake and in high-rise buildings in the area. Verizon insists coverage is strong in the area but I strongly disagree from first-hand experience!

I have used, on average, about 10 minutes each month. It's because I usually can't make a single call without walking about 6 blocks. I can now type text messages very quickly though, but it takes about 30 sends before one goes through. I've also gotten voice mails 7 hours after they were left, and one time I dropped my phone on the floor and all of a sudden three voice mails popped up.
