We just moved into a house a block off this intersection and apparently there is "fair" signal stength here... which means if you want to use your cell phone as a house phone your out of luck. The phone can be sitting on our kitchen table and keep beeping due to loss of signal. After wasting a few hours of my life explaining this to over a dozen people claiming to work in Nextel customer care, I was finally told that the only way to terminate service early and avoid a fee was to have a 5% or more dropped call ratio. I had only made it to 4.1%. They actually wanted to give me more useless minutes.

Great Reception in this area with no dropped calls - indoors and out.

I bought this new phone a couple of months ago. The phone works fine in the city where I work (St. Joseph), but it's useless in my home off of Barry Road. I'm at the begining of the 2 year contract, OUCH.

I live a little bit NW of this intersection, and have no problems making or getting calls at home. Have also had good service in most of KC area, w. only a couple of dropped calls in Lenexa area, using this and previous Motorola V710.

TERRIBLE! We drop nearly every call we get and can't talk in our house... horrible.

Perfect everywhere in KC but is not in the US cellular coverage area. Never had a dropped call anywhere in the US and have had for a year and a half.

Great reception everywhere in Kansas City except in my appartment building at the above intersection. I constantly get dropped calls unless I sit in the middle of the appartment and don't move while I'm talking. I've been very happy with Verizon otherwise but I'm really getting sick of having bad reception at home

Poor service both in and outside of my home. Zero to two bars. It's very hard to have a conversation without it breaking up.

Better off with tin cans and a string. After going through a ton of phones, finally found the Sony that would at least maintain a connection up and down Waukomis, although it is barely useable. Cingular's Northland coverage is TERRIBLE and customer service is the worse I've ever seen (and that's AFTER you finally talk to them). There is a new tower going up at Barry Rd, east of Green Hills but I don't know whose it is. Looks like Cingular, but don't know how to find out.

If your standing still and in certain key places in Kansas City you can get 4 out of 5 bars. You're guaranteed to drop calls a few times if you decide to drive around with it. Calls from my work place down at 104 and Holmes get 0 to 2 bars out of 5.
