Sprint tower at 156 / Giles. Also shared by US Cellular.

So far no problems, no dropped calls, the worst calls experience some randomness in the volume, most calls are clear, calling other iphones or high end smartphones usually sounds like there is a studio linked between you and them. 3g is a little slower than my friends on expensive carriers, but usually 80% as fast. Reasonable 3g coverage in anything that resembles a small town.

Usually 1 bar or no bars in our garden level apartment and occasionally even outside. And thats WITH roaming. My boyfriend has US Cellular and has no problems sending and receiving calls and texting messages.

I spent a week trying to resolve the issue with Sprint and my cell phone. Cox told me it could be that my phone was listed in the 402 area code but not in Omaha. Turned out to be true, but Sprint denied that could be the case. I spoke with Joseph, Cesar, Loren,etc. at the main Sprint number, several people at the 114th Dodge location and people at the 90th Fort location. Sprint kept my phone and when it was returned it worked for a couple of days, then nothing. Took it back and the battery was dead and the port to recharge was also broken. These things were fine when I dropped the phone off. The phone is old but had been working fine. Strange timing. I have discarded my phone and will be looking for new service. I asked for comment cards regarding customer service and was told those had to come from the company and were done by phone and no comment cards were available. One person was willing to help if I extended my contract for two years. I can't consider extending a contract with the poor service and people who can not be trusted.

Sprint usually delivers good reception throughout Omaha. The issues with Sprint are their lack of quality phones. Every cool phone on the market (iphone, blackberry bold, blackberry storm, etc) is not available on the Sprint network. The only decent phones they do have, they usually get them months or years afters carriers like AT&T and Verizon have had them. THIS IS INEXCUSABLE! As a customer I should not have to accept that my carrier, that I pay good money to, refuses to spend the money necessary to get the rights to the top end phones. This is the main reason that Sprint is losing thousands of customers every month. They have yet to understand that they can have the good reception and cheap rates, but with no quality phones people are going to leave. Step up Sprint, or get ready to file for bankruptcy.

Get 3 bars on average. Whenever I hang up on a call, it goes out of service for a while. ???? Reception is good on interstates. Overall it's ok.

I swtched from us cellular to Sprint and I have never dropped a call any where in omaha I drive 10 hours a day threw omaha ad surrounding areas no major issues. reception depends on quality of phone I use 3 different phones for work all Sprint I some phones get better signal than others but overall Sprint wins all the way around. No problems at all any where I have been

Have called, tried 3 different phones, asked Sprint to update, no avail. 1 bar or none, 2 maybe in the parking lot. I get 2 bars in my home with the new Instinct while my old Sanyo flip-phone got 4 bars. Sprint is going backwards.

Can't remember a dropped call. Even in the basement I always get 3 bars and EVDO.

Had Sprint for 4 years in Omaha, and never had any major issues. I would highly recommend it. Makes AT&T look like a joke.

I moved to 90th / Harney from another east central location and now my Sprint service doesn't work at all. Even when I go outside, the reception is dropped, completely garbled. I had no probllems before the move. Everyone around here says the service is terrible. How can a city the size of Omaha have no service in the middle of town!

Always disconnected if I made a call from my basement apartment. I have to go outside to get a better reception. Better than T-Mobile but worse than Verizon.

Have to go outside to use cell, we hv 5 diff phones, none work in house. Son in KC dropps calls ALOT! dead spots 168th Maple and Dodge abt Boystown. Going back to using a house phone when I wsnt available 25 hours a day!

Sprint is awesome in Omaha, great coverage throughout the city and the I80 corridor, good support from the 72nd and Dodge Office. A bit spotty and roaming when you head west to Fremont.

I always lose signal when inside of buildings and when outside, the phone operates most of the time, in roaming mode.

Two Verizon phones are currently in roam in this area.

I've never had a worse experience. Sprint is the worst carrier I have ever had. My phone doesn't seem to work well anywhere. If it is an issue of old technology then Sprint needs to give me a new phone. My service has been so bad that it is almost criminal for them to charge me. I expect to drop a call 5 times before I make a phone call. How many people start out their conversations with "ok, can you hear me ok... good. I might lose my signal any second so get to the point" STAY AWAY FROM SPRINT. I would love to see them go out of business.

It was 1-2 bars last year but now around 3 bars this year. Not bad but not great. It mostly works in Omaha area except malls and Eppley Airfield.

Great reception with Sprint in NorthWest Omaha. I get service in any buildings, in my basement, and have tried it as far out as Elkhorn and Waterloo with no issues at all.

Great service downtown and around town. UP Center has great service and have not experienced many dropped called.
