Almost no coverage, if you do get a call it will fade.

No signal - zero, zip, nada, nothing either inside or outside of my house. Can you hear me now? NO, I can't!

Signals fade out all the time from my house on Lake Washington Blvd.

Almost always great reception, very few problems. Quite a contrast to AT&T / Cingular.

Just enough reception to trick you into thinking you can use the service. But, once you do, your call is either unintelligible or outright dropped.

There are many deadspots in this area. With Verizon you are lucky to get two bars and calls are frequently dropped. Especially in a house even near a window. I had better luck with Qwest in this area, neighbors in this area seem to be looking at Cingular for a better more conistent reception.

On top of a big hill overlooking Vashon, bad reception in our house. 1 and 1 / 2 bars at best.

Never had a problem making or receiving phonecalls, even with 2-3 bars. Reception is a little scratchy-sounding sometimes. I realize the difference in quality when I use voip instead.

Can only send and receive reliably on top floor of house at west facing front windows. Outside is spotty and unreliable too. Entire neighborhood seems to have far worse reception than the geography would warrant. Hard not to contemplate there being a lower investment in infrastructure in this predominately minority area of the city than in other whiter neighborhoods. That said, I find reception poor in many areas and am amazed at how much time my phone is showing "Extended coverage" designation (40% of time?).

Very spotty. Calls get dropped all the time.

Inside my house I get awful to no reception. Unless I stand by the window I either get dropped or very spotty reception. Even when I stand by the window it's just barely good enough to talk.

Very poor reception inside my west facing townhouse. Ok in some parts of Seattle. Have been told it is my phone, but I have no problem with it or the conversations in other cities I have traveling in... ...

Unlike with AT&T and Verizon, I never drop calls in Madison Park with my T-Mobile service. It's the best I've found thus far for use in my apartment.

I live about 2 blocks from Brookside Elementary School on 178th St.NE in Lake Forest Park. With my latest phone from Verizon, a Motorola E815, I always have perfect reception anywhere in my home. No complaints at all. My previous phone, a Samsung from 2003, got only 3 or 4 bars but I never had any reception probelms with it. I use my cell phone as my business phone, and I work from home.

Very spotty reception, many dropped calls.

Reception marginal during good weather. During bad weather, calls often get dropped.

Getting dropped calls 30% of the time, and only signed with Verizon 2 days ago. 2 bars at my house. Went to Verizon and called customer service--phone checks out. They indicated Nokia / Motorola have the best antennae, but still no reception. I don't know if Cingular or T-Mobile have any better reception here. It looks like West Seattle is a "miss" for the major wireless players?

Outdoors usually 4-5 bars. Indoors, apartment facing west - living room 3-4, bedroom 3-4, den 2-3, furthest wall away from balcony 1-2 bars. Never had a dropped call. It may say 1 bar, but your conversation is still clear with no problems.

Had Verizon for many years, always had 1 or 2 bars at the house, occasional calls cutting out. Unimpressed with Verizon but it was better then Cingular is.
