Now that Verizon has purchased Alltel, the coverage in Emmet County has been excellent in many areas, especially in Petoskey and Harbor Springs, and along the highway. North of Harbor springs has some dead spots due to lack of towers and the hilly terrain. If you live on top of a hill you may get great coverage up here. The area around Boyne Highlands and Nubs Nob and northward are spotty at best. Also, eastward from here between US31 and I75 there are a lot of dead spots. Someone should put a tower on top of Boyne Highlands. This would cover a very large busy area with many highly rated golf courses and two of the most popular ski areas in Michigan, and it would fill most of the dead spots north of Harbor Springs, maybe all.
