Dulles Airport, Sterling, VA 20166 Thu Nov 19, 2009

I just bought a Droid and I can never get reception out near Dulles. I'm not sure if it's the radar towers. This really bothers me whenever I am trying to work from home while sitting at a McDonald's or a Starbucks. I'm not sure what happened here but it isn't good. RonnieMac

I've lived here for about 9 months and hadn't had a problem with coverage in this area yet. I consistently have full 3G coverage. Coverage all through Northern VA seems pretty good. Very few times do I not have 3G coverage, and in those cases I generally have pretty good EDGE coverage.

Cascades / Potomac View, Sterling, VA 20165 Wed Jan 02, 2008

Reception is only possible in the backyard (sometimes) and occasionally on the 3rd floor of our house. Very poor coverage. Even though a cell tower just went up a block away!

Extremely poor reception. Don't even bother making calls unless i'm on the Balcony or a certain corner of the house. This area needs a Cell tower badly.

No bars. Sometimes rings, but intermittent voice, so I wind up calling back on the land line. Can only make calls from one corner of my deck. Also lose calls along the Pkwy. Have no idea who to switch to!

Potomac Garden Apartments, Sugarland. 2 bars at best, indoors and outdoors, and generally lousy service indoors. Ironically, Cingular's coverage map says this is a "Best" reception area. Must drive well south and west to get decent reception, so I generally leave the phone off at home.

Cingular Store (irony, thy name is Cingular) in Cascades Marketplace and Starbucks across the street - 1-2 bars. Cingular coverage map claims "Best" reception in this area, but only a small percentage of open areas actually deliver 3 or more bars.

Even though you have reception, call quality is 0. Conversation is based on merely guessing what the other party may be saying..Regret switching..

Calls deteriorate as you head north on Seneca Rd. toward the Potomac, and always drop at some point - usually back back toward Beach Mill. I live at the north end of Seneca, and either have to end my calls before getting on Seneca (on my way home), or wait until I'm off (if I'm on my way out).

I switched from Sprint to Verizon not long ago. The Verizon service is much better. The Motorola phone is great! I can even use the phone in my basment.
