State Wide, Santa Fe, NM 87501 Sun Jul 16, 2006

I've built out most of the major wireless networks in this state. Alltel has invested the most $$ early on, so they have the superior network, besides the Socorro area, they do not own the NM3 frequency. Analog is going away in late 06', but the majority of the analog sites have been upgraded to digital. T-mobile, Sprint / Nextel and Verizon are close seconds. Verizon and T-Mobile have kept upgrading their networks slowly over the years, which has improved their networks. Sprint / Nextel had a big push two years ago, but slowing down now. I'm currently working on the Cingular network. They have turned on 100 new sites in the last year, another 100 in development currently. Stay tuned, they will be competing soon. They roam with Platue and Commnet in the N. and SE. part of the state. These roaming partners have mediocre networks, we hope they will reclaim these areas and install their own network, about 100 sites. The only complaint I have in this state is Santa Fe! What are you guys smoking over there? It's almost impossible to develop anything, people think we are trying to implant micro chips and broadcast conservative brain washing. My solution is for all the wireless carries just cut you off. How do you like the reception now! This area is growing very fast and is supported by a sub-par network due to ignorance of its residents. You cant talk on you cell driving unless its hands free, so I have a docking station for my PDA, now I can surf the net while driving, good thing I'm looking down and not holding the phone up to my ear and looking forward. You people really frustrate me! I won't even start with Taos and Madrid, they should go back to smoke signals... .. Next time you see someone apposing a new cell site, please give your support to the cell phone company. Were trying to give you reception, but the hypocrisy is the only thing expanding, or is it ignorance? Each of these carriers has spent over $200 - $300 million in this state, they bring a lot of $$ into the state but the opposition is tremendous. I don't see anyone apposing the Labs and the weapons / hazards they develop. Out... ... ...

Logan, Ute Lake NM / Every Where intersection, Logan, NM 88426 Tue Jul 11, 2006

I have several different phones and none of them work in this area. It shows complete digital service and full bars but a call will not go out. Also shows roaming when the map shows home area! I am very very unhappy with the service. My sister in law has Sprint and my brother in law has plateau. His works every where and hers works most the time.

Coal / carlisle, Albuquerque, NM 87108 Sun Jun 25, 2006

Like a previous poster has said: reception in Nob Hill on T-Mobile has been getting steadily worse. I can no longer use my cell phone in my home and am currently attempting to get out of my contract. Something has definitely changed, but T-Mobile doesn't seem to know it and keeps telling me, and my friends, that we are in a good coverage area. Bizarre.

Just commenting that their coverage drops out completely while ascending or decending the hill just north of Santa Fe on US 84 / 285. It goes from very strong to zero and my calls are almost always dropped.

I have been with the various companies that are currently Alltel since 1991 so I am not complaining about Alltel which has served me at home and in various cities in the Southwest extremely well. Please take this note only to comment on the seemingly permentant dead sport at the location I have listed above.

Bishops Lodge Rd. / Barranca Rd. intersection, Santa Fe, NM 87501 Tue Mar 14, 2006

No Verizon Reception east of this intersection between Bishops Lodge Rd.and Hyde Park Road. Very spotty reception from Santa Fe south along I-25 towards Albuquerque. Must be in Santa Fe proper for any reception and then only 3 bars. Verizon's customer service on Cerrillos is terrible. 1 to 1.5 hour wait. The customer service reps don't seem to care. Obviously very poorly managed.
