Had Sprint for years. Works great on Broad Run Dr. and Youngs Cliff Rd, however it drops calls on Persimmon (behind hill) traveling into Countryside. Does not work at the 3 schools along Algonkian Pkwy.

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

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.

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!

Algonkian Pkwy. / Cascades Pkwy., Sterling, VA 20165 Wed Aug 15, 2007

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.

Varies from 0 to 2 bars. Nearly impossible to use in the house. Very poor service all around the Lowes Island area and most of Algonkian Pkwy.
