Seems to be in-the-shadow of the tower on Atherton, but coverage is good.

Certain areas have no reception but others have excellent reception. Stupid mountains. Areas near South Hills Business School, and Lions Gate apartments on Waupelani Drive, all the way to the Giant off of Martin St. my cell phone is vertually useless, (between 0-2 bars). Other side of town, usually 5 out 5.

Reception is constantly changing. I can be talking on the phone and it's perfectly fine and the next second the call is cut off and it can take numerous tries when redialing to be connected again. Not sure if it's the phone or the service.

I get almost no reception in my apartment. I've tried going outside, which is an inconvenience, but helps reception a little.

Verizon reception is fine (4-5 bars) along Toftrees Ave, but along Cricklewood drive, I get 2 bars at best, usually just 1. Frequent dropped calls and the phone strains for enough signal to start a new call.

Extremely poor reception. Calls frequently get terminated. Talked to another friend with a T-Mobile connection and he too faces massive problems... SUCKS big time!

AT&T / Cingular have very spotty reception in this area, and GSM is worse than the old network. I have switched to Verizon, and I hear Nextel is great here too. I would suggest you avoid AT&T / Cingular at any cost. I was frustrated constantly for a year. I love Verizon.

Had a sprint phone for two days (Complete joke!) Did a one year GSM At&t contract that sucked. It was ok in the beginning, then into it a month or so it got real bad, no reception at either house, (lived in two intown locations) then it got real good (relatively speaking) for Jan and part of Feb. Lately I had no service at all even in my sweet spots around the house. GIrlfriend has TDMA At&t here and it works pretty good. I was told the GSM was "Way better" by the salesperson. I just switched to Verizon today, and guess what? This isn't a dead spot, At&t GSM just SUCKS! Happy for the first time in a while!!! :)
