Reception seems to depend on phone models as this is my second Android phone that got great reception, but other household members with feature phones do poorly even if we're right next to each other. All in all my coverage is great though. I get reception in one of my favorite bars that is in a basement where nobody else can get service. I do a lot of traveling between Evansville, Indianapolis, Louisville, and Cincinnati and Dayton. The only place where I've had coverage issues is Holiday World in Spencer County. To be fair that is in the middle of nowhere though. The best part about Sprint is there is 3G data coverage pretty much everywhere there is voice coverage whereas my friends with AT&T and Verizon often have voice coverage and no data.

There is little to no reception for any AT&T users in downtown Evansville since the nearby tower was removed 8 months ago. Does anyone know when it will be replaced?

I can not get a signal in my own house... . Sprint says that everything is fine, but I know that everyone that lives around here has the same problem. They should fix this ASAP. Build a tower or something.

I go from 1 bar to 0 bars to no service regularly with an occasional 5 bars for no apparent reason. Dropped calls are common and messages from missed calls and the phone never ringing happen 2 or more times a week. I loved Cingular. I do not care for At&t

Indoor signals are not the greatest, this was an indoor signal. Outdoor signals are much better.

Such a tremendous disappointment. No surprise,I guess as this company has no towers (that I know of) in the area or even remotely close. I get lousy reception in my residence,1 - 2,bars and in my bedroom it is the worst. It can go from 1 to 0 (or drop the call entirely) at any given moment. To talk for long periods,I have to move to another spot in the house and even then the signal is usually 2 bars at best. If I am away from the area,grocery shopping or what have you,the signal strength improves,sometimes to a full 5 bars. If it weren't for the fact my current plan is so affordable I would have canceled it months ago.

AT&T changed frequency for a number of 2G phones in the Evansville area. I could not get good reception at my house without having to go outside.

Reception is poor, not that it matters either way with Sprint, the customer service is the worst I have ever had to deal with, ever since the merger with Nextel it is REALLY bad.

I previously had Sprint and that was a joke. Sprint is constantly dropped calls. Cingular seems to do well in my area. But sometimes even my friends on Cingular don't do well. Verizon is by far the best. You get what you pay for.

Princeton Court apartments and I get lucky if I get two bars. I can never hear anyone and have to basically hang out of my window to talk to people. The phone sucks too, but its mainly Verizon from what I hear from other people in the area.

Verizon is great, as long as you don't live in Petersburg Place. Really, it is just a bad area with bad recetion. I had Sprint before this and had the same problem. I could blame it on the airport... but as soon as you get on 41 or 57... RIGHT by the airport, it is better. So who knows why.
