Overall, reception is 4 to 5 bars in Williamsport. AT&T has been adding towers for the last 2 or 3 years. Have good reception from Williamsport along State Route 15 all the way to the New York state line. Any review older than 2006 probably isn't accurate any more.
I don't have any reception. I always have dropped calls. Sprint was called, and we stayed on the line with them for 68 hours. A support rep. explained that they could not find any Sprint towers in the area for coverage, and would note this in the case notes. We talked to a manager, who insisted otherwise! Funny thing is, if you look on the maps, this contradicts the manager's biased reply! Yes, there are towers. Yes, there is coverage, but it is LIMITED, depending upon one's location in the 17701 Zip Code. The manager conveniently left out the important word, LIMITED!
Nextel seems to work great all over Wmspt. Seems to do better in buildings to than my Verizon did. The only thing Nextel lacks on is going north. Just before Trout Run you lose it. Their closest tower though is above the Hesbon Rd. area as your going up the highway you can see it as its right next to you on the left going north.
