4 Miles South of 280 Near Camp Hill, Camp Hill, AL 36850 |
Fri Jul 21, 2006 |
We live in a rural area south of Camp Hill and we get no cell phone reception at all at our house. We've tried AllTel (2 different phones), Cingular, and AT&T, and none of them has a signal that reaches our place. Our only solution has been to install an antenna in the attic and run a cable through the ceiling to a desk in the kitchen. Then, if we plug the "wireless" phone into the antenna connection, we get maybe one or two bars. Usually the calls get dropped even then. A colleague calls this "the cost of rurality."

Reception improves the closer you get to I-20. Once you pass by a large hill on the south side of H-77 where a large cell tower is, just before entering Talladega city you will loose all connectivity. My wife has a Nokia phone with the same results. We both had Analog Roming signal indications but no access once we were in Talladega.

Very little reception, none at my residence on Old F'ville road, unless you climb onto the roof, and I think its great there. Maybe cut a hole in ceiling for easier access to roof, or just dont use it at all.

Fairway Dr.(right Off Montevallo Road), Birmingham, AL 35213 |
Tue Jun 20, 2006 |
I rarely, if ever, get good reception at home. Certain spots in certain rooms will get me one bar at best. I cannot answer my phone except in these places or else Sprint will drop the call. Outside is no better. I get bad service all over Mountain Brook, honestly, and several places in the Birmingham area.

Had a good signal until they "fixed" the tower back in March. No signal since. You can see the tower-unobstructed-just air between you and the tower and no signal. Cingular does not seem to care.

Theodore / Old Pascagoula / Theodore-Dawes intersection, Theodore, AL 36582 |
Sat May 06, 2006 |
Constantly dropped calls; "searching for service"; no bars or maybe 1. Called Virgin Mobile. They are on Sprint Network here in AL. They didn't give a crap, but they sure took my money and said "yes, we have service in that area" when I signed up. They suck! Customer Service wouldn't give me a corporate number to call either when they told me "there's nothing we can do".

2-3 solid bars, but can't get a call out, must not be an affiliated third party network
