Never had any problem with our cell phones until April. But since then, we have no reception in our condo. Have repeatedly called Alltel but no one can answer what has happened and why. Will have to switch cell phone providers. So very frustrating!

Pulled into Holland Realty parking across the street from the base of Ski Beech and was able to text, talk and check my email.

Absolutely Zero reception at my home on the gravel part of BMP, but a block or two down Wintergreen and I get spotty reception.

I cannot get any reception whatsoever on Beech Mountain, and it's hit or miss in Banner Elk. It's not until I get nearly to Boone that it finally kicks in and actually works. If I were in the area more often, I would definitely switch from Cingular!

Great cell phone reception outside, but inside of buildings, it is very patchy.

GSM has been added to fill in reception between Roan Mtn, TN and Linville, NC. It all used to be zero in GSM. TDMA lost a tower in Elk Park area but still usable signal. Still have neither TDMA nor GSM between Roan Mtn and toward Hampton, TN. Nokia 5165 used for TDMA and Nokia 6340i for GSM. 6340i not permitted to use TDMA in NC, so far, for me.

The last 4 years I have had great reception near Fred's on Beech Mountain. My house is closeby Fred's. This was with AT&T. They are now Cingular. I had absolutely no reception May 15, 2004. What has happened this year? There is absolutely no Service!! I have to drive to Banner Elk to make Cell calls. Looks like it is time to move to another carrier!

Came back to my home on Beech Mtn this Summer and Bingo! Full Nextel phone service from inside and outside of my home. A new tower must have just been installed as 2 months ago, I had no coverage. Near Fred's I still have good service.

We have Sprint service and we even have 3g where we're staying on Sugar Mtn and at the grocery store down the road. I'm assuming that's because Sprint and Verizon trade towers, so it's probably more Verizon than anything! :)
