I had Alltel, which had excellent reception out here. When Verizon bought out Alltel and I was switched to Verizon, the service has dropped - poor reception frequently, occasionally drops.

My Motorola Krave is awesome! Verizon is awesome! This is the best phone and phone company I have had and been with. Reception for incoming and outgoing calls is the best! Downloading messages, music, games, and apps is wonderful! Internet and Vcast was faster before the Alltel hook up but still is awesome enough to keep in my plan! I am absolutely enjoying my Krave ZN4! Small dead zone areas include Mccotter blvd, the 101 curve entering / leaving Havelock, the small bridge area of Black Creek in Newport, and past the camp ground on Adams Creek its still great but can run into a "floating bad spot" from time to time. Acutal dropped calls are maybe no more than 10 a month in the house, less than that outside. My sound is very clear... people think i'm in the city all the time! I love my Motorola Krave... the days of using a wire ear piece and holding my phone up like the statue of liberty, for reception, are long gone! Verizon rules!

Perhaps the base and its radar systems are effecting the cell signal somehow?

From Mcotter turn east on 101 I lose signal at the end of the fence at the base then it is off and on all the way to Harlowe. Mostly off. Alltel customers now get full bars down it that area thanks to a new tower somewhere close by but even with Verizon buying Alltel we haven't seen the tower yet. Verizon service isn't good until your in Morehead City

Very Poor reception, have to get back out to Adams Creek Rd.near 101 for any thing!

I can send and receive text messages. However, I can only receive pictures and not send them... go figure. I only get 2-3 bars at most.

I never see my phone say that I am in the Verizon Network, and I can't send picture messages or receive them. I have to drive to Morehead City to do that. For the price of Verizon, their service really sucks. But at least I don't live on base anymore and don't have to worry about driving around base or off base just to use my phone like I used to.

They just turned on the towers in the area, and gave me a local number Whahooo! after 2 months of a Raliegh number...
