AT&T Wireless has dropouts at the following locations along Interstate 70: at the Baltimore County line between the Beltway and US29. Near Turf Valley (where US40 comes in and joins, near mile 82). At the Frederick County line near Mt. Airy. Near Spring Ridge (Mile 59). Near New Market (Mile 62). Along US340 and US15, there's a severe dropout atop the ridge near Jefferson, MD - the call will drop every single time and 200 feet later you'll have five bars. I've been with AT&T for three years and this has never changed in the slightest.

My calls frequently drop even when I'm in my house. Frederick, MD isn't a good area for Sprint.

I have poor coverage in Frederick, MD... . as well as DC. Some places are great, other are horrible. I see people chatting or surfing in areas where I don't get coverage. I'm going to start asking them who their providers are. I came here looking for guidance, but all the info seems dated.

I had Sprint in Chicago and moved to Frederick about 9 months ago. While I never had a problem in chicago, around here my signal strength varies wildly, even sitting still in my apartment in town. Calls frequently drop or sound garbled. I haven't encountered a "dead zone" with absolutely no service, but it is utterly unreliable. With my plan expiring this summer, I'm definitely in the market for a new carrier.

Long stretches where I get one, maybe two bars. Routinely unable to make calls from in front of the house. Often, people say they have called me, but no record on my phone.

Good Bye AT&T; I will switch to Verizon or Sprint for my 4GS... and because the phone provides courier options, I will switch again in two years if I get bad reception!

I have to go outside or stand next to my front window facing the cell tower which is located near Ft Detrick. I get 1-1 / 2 bars if I go to my second floor window. If T-Mobile is rated the highest, I feel sorry for the rest.

Almost no reception anywhere in my house or outside around my house. It wasn't this bad a year ago. What the heck happened AT and T?

Just purchased a new Android smartphone thinking I would get better reception... .not so. Still only receive one bar in my residence even though I am located within.3 miles of a T-Mobile tower. Frederick County and City need more towers. Service will not improve with merger of ATT and T-Mobile since both companies have only one tower each in locale and ATT is rated lower than T-Mobile on reception scale.
