I am very impressed with reception in this area. Alltel's roaming agreements have provided for great coverage in areas where Verizon has failed, like driving south into CA and AZ. It has held calls in / around the airport where others have dropped. I am very pleased. It is important to have a phone with a good resume for reception too.

As a Radio Frequency Engineer who has had good service in the past with Sprint I am currently not pleased with their coverage at the listed location. There does not seem to be a dominant PN. While there is sufficient signal strength the sytem in this part of the network is not properly optimized. The serving site for this location has a sector that is pointed almost directly into Lone Mountain... not sure what type of design this is but the sector is just bore-sighted directly into a mountain. High FER and dirty Ec / Io prevail in this area. So Sprint Las Vegas RF Engineering department if you are reading this PLEASE OPTIMIZE THIS AREA. Peace Out

I would Have to stand in front of my house to get 2 bars sometimes three. I used to own a nokia660 until I got so many dropped calls, I smashed the phone. I found out that it was just the service. Dropped calls from hell.

Great Reception Great Connection.

Glad I got rid of Sprint, even if Cingular isn't much better. Sprint rarely had a signal at my house, which is only about a mile from downtown. The phone didn't ring when someone called, and it often took two to three weeks for the voicemail to appear. I ended up telling people I didn't own a cell phone because Sprint's service was worthless.

Drops about 70-80% of all calls, even though it usually claims 4-5 bars of reception. Calls are filled with static, and I find myself asking people to repeat themselves four or five times in a ten minute call. Sometimes I get a "no service" message, sometimes I see bars but when I try to call out, I get dead air. It's just as bad in downtown, too.

Come on Cingular, MORE BARS! You drop 3 out of 5 calls on me and that's on a good day. How about a few more towers?

Perfect reception in and around Nellis AFB area.

I just bought the LG vx8300 and it is great but the drawback is that where I live is that a have only one barout of four. I can still make calls with one bar and can talk if theres no signal at all. I've been with Verizon Wireless before 9 / 11 and still am, I still think they have the best service to this day.

I have been a Sprint customer for years. The only thing they are consistent with is dropping my calls and having their "network busy" constantly near my home. One minute I can have 4 bars (very rarely do I ever have 5) and 5 seconds later I will have none, call lost, while not moving. Then I play the waiting-game to see when the signal bars come back so I can re-connect my call.

Phone only works maybe 1 out 5 times and when it does I drop the call almost immediately.

We need a Verizon tower out here,verizon is great everywhere I go in vegas accept at my home.

The spaghetti bowl and all of Freemont St.

I moved to the area about 5 months ago, and have had no problems with reception with my 2 year old V600. It ranges from 2-4 bars out of 5 all the time, and that's indoors. We'll see how my next phone (Treo 650) does.

Have to go upstairs to get any reception at all

Have to go upstairs to get any reception at all and then it drops calls

Perfect 1X and EVDO coverage inthis area

Missed calls, dropped calls. Reception is OK when it stays connected. Typically one or two bars of service. Cannot connect on one bar.

Generally I get 4 bars on my phone in my house. I can't complain. I've used T-Mobile for atleast the last 5 years so I can't compare to others carriers. Yes, there are dropped calls here and there, but mostly when I make calls out of state connecting to other carriers on the east coast. Also, I wonder if the phone model and battery life contribute as much to the dropped calls or poor connection?

reception perfect in Henderson where I work.. very poor with dropped calls and calls going direct to voice mail in North Las Vegas where I live.
