Only perfect if Im upstairs. Downstairs is good, but not perfect. Is slow to connect to internet, sometimes doesn't. Calls are okay, made and received. Downtown Pawhuska, being in a valley, is a dead zone depending on where you are located or if a bldg is next door blocking the signal from the hills south and north where the Cingular towers are located. The closer you get to the base of a hill no signal. The further away you are or up high on a hill the better the signal. Pre-paid T-Mobile does not work here as the only towers are Cingular. But, if you sign up for a years contract or greater then Cingular's contract with T-Mobile allowing mutual sharing of towers allows phone / browser to work basically without hinderance. Great signals from Pawhuska to Bartlesville (hwy 60)! Very good signal to Tulsa via Barnsdall-Hwy 11, but dead zone two-three miles diameter in and out of Barnsdall and one more two mile diameter dead zone centered from Avant. Unknown going to Ponca City, Hwy. 60 from Pawhuska, I believe, its a dead zone all the way on T-Mobile. Hwy. 99 to Cleveland is dead zone parts of way until you get past in and out of Cleveland.
