Verizon 1 Out of 5 Phone Model: Treo 650	Wapping Rd. / Sandy Point, Portsmouth, RI 02871	Tue Aug 26, 2008
Verizon 1 Out of 5 Phone Model: Treo 650	Switched from Cingular to Verizon in Fall of 2006 due to poor reception on Cingular. For first two months, had good reception on Verizon. Since then, 1 or 2 bars at best and constant dropped calls. Researching other carriers for better signal strength in this dead zone.

Verizon 5 Out of 5 Phone Model: Motorola RAZR V3c	East Side of Portsmouth, Portsmouth, RI 02871	Wed Dec 14, 2005

Nextel 1 Out of 5 Phone Model: Motorola i836	West Main Rd. / Near RT24, Portsmouth, RI 02871	Wed Jun 15, 2005
Nextel 1 Out of 5 Phone Model: Motorola i836	Reception is poor to none on the north end of West Main Rd. in Portsmouth. This has been a long time problem and Nextel does not seem to care. Aquidneck Island is small and should not be hard to fix these dead spots!

T-Mobile 5 Out of 5 Phone Model: Samsung SGH-R225m	East Main, Portsmouth, RI 02871	Thu Jan 27, 2005
T-Mobile 5 Out of 5 Phone Model: Samsung SGH-R225m	Reception in RI and MA with T-Mobile overall is great. The eastern part of Aquidneck Island is marginal, and very spotty in my house. I have held a good signal from Newport to Buffalo, NY, and I've read that my phone is not the best for reception. I anticipate getting even better reception with a newer phone.

Nextel 1 Out of 5 Phone Model: Motorola i860	E. Main Rd., Portsmouth, RI 02871	Thu Oct 14, 2004
Nextel 1 Out of 5 Phone Model: Motorola i860	I've had a i90, i95 and now the i860 and reception is stil poor. Calls constantly dropped. So tough to get a signal.

Nextel 0 Out of 5 Phone Model: Motorola i730	Rt. 24 to Rt. 114, Portsmouth, RI 02871	Thu Sep 09, 2004
Nextel 0 Out of 5 Phone Model: Motorola i730	Nextel seems to have good coverage throughout most of RI and SE Mass but I always have a problem from the 24S area in Tiverton until almost Middletown. There is no signal at all on Rt. 114 south in Portsmouth for over 2 miles. I cannot understand why the area is so dead. I read an earlier post from someone who said that Nextel is installing a new tower in Portsmouth in early 2005. I hope that is the case because the service is awful.

Verizon 5 Out of 5 Phone Model: LG VX3200	East / West Main / Rt. 24, Portsmouth, RI 02871	Mon Sep 06, 2004
Verizon 5 Out of 5 Phone Model: LG VX3200	Verizon is great on Aquidneck Island and throughout RI and SE Mass. Never without service.

Nextel 1 Out of 5 Phone Model: Motorola i90	Route 24 / Route 114, Portsmouth, RI 02871	Sun Jun 13, 2004
Nextel 1 Out of 5 Phone Model: Motorola i90	The reception from the Sakonnet River Bridge on Rt. 24 all the way into Portsmouth on Rt. 114 is horrible. I have notified Nextel about 8 times and was finally told that a new tower will be installed in early 2005. Nextel needs more towers in southern RI.
