By the windows facing south I get very good coverage, but inside the house I usually get 1-2 bars and calls quality is bad and frequently dropped.

Normally 1 to 2 bars, but usually can get through a phone call, occasionally having to repeat a few words.

I used to have horrible horrible reception with an older Motorola V400 series. I recently witched to a newer Nokia N75. The clarity and reception has improved immensely. I often drive to Sterling and there are no dead spots anymore. I actually was very pessimistic about AT&T. Itis odd that the new phone made such a difference. A geek friend said it is in the newer improved SIM chips. Anyway..the voice is good, and Downlaods with MTSA GSM... while not HSPDA..is decent. I am not ecstatic about AT&T..but I am no longer as furious and angry either. YMMV

I often have two bars but incoming calls are usually dropped and outgoing calls are nearly impossible. My husband has an older phone and he gets better service than I do (AT&T Cingular also)

I get great Cingular GSM coverage throughout Leesburg and south to Chantilly and even out to Purcellville / Round Hill. I have never had a problem getting reception BUT, my wife has the same exact phone and carrier (and we are on the same family plan) and she cannot get coverage in River Creek at our house. I guess I got the Razr with the good antenna. I am going to try one of those boosters you stick on your battery and if that doesn't work I'm getting her another phone. I have found that the phone can make a big difference in getting reception.

Always 4-5 bars in the house and around Leesburg downtown within walking distance, except in big stores with lots of flourescents (Like Home Depot, Target) where everyone drops out. Total drop-out on Rt 15 anywhere near Point of Rocks.

Very rare to hold an entire conversation without dropping the call. Setting phone to roaming only helps a little but not much. Phone does connect at EVDO speeds but not at any impressive speeds at all.

Philomont / Middleburg / 50 West, Leesburg, VA 20175 Sun Jun 18, 2006

On 50 west, drops off almost entirely after Middleburg and doesn't return. On 7 west, drops off at Leesburg Mountain, is iffy to the Shenandoah, then comes back in Clarke County. Good in Purcellville / Hamilton, but generally iffy west of 15. A little hinky around Dulles Airport, especially on the Toll Road. Messaging is hit-or miss; can take a day or more to receive a message even with updated software.
