3 Miles west of Rt. 47 and 2 miles south of Emington. After ditching Nextel, we went with At&t. Though I seem to get better coverage than most with my phone, I have no complaints. it's not bad at all for the area. Just be sure to get a phone that rates with good reception. Did hear a rumor that the recent up in dropped calls is because we only have one tower in the area and it's being over used. Maybe they'll put a new one up. *crosses fingers, holds breath, passes out*

We use to get decent reception at our farm south of Emington. Now we get no service or when we do have a singal it says 'system busy.' Nextel is no help and we're stuck in a contract. Was told that the nearest tower is 10 miles away, but our phones only reach 2-6 miles. Wonder why they would sell service out here knowing it wouldn't work? *grumble* Nextels seem great everywhere else, just don't get one if you live out this way!

Just got off the phone with Verizon after purchasing a new phone 2 months ago because of poor reception. They can't help us get better reception. They will drop the penalty when we drop, if we decided to go with another provider. What choice do we have? The reception is horrible. It works sometimes outside of the house and very rarely near window in house. Calls are dropped every time! Calls are always dropped when I drive through Dwight! What provider do I chose for this area?
