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.
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.
No Cingular reception between Paseo De Peralta and Tesuque, nor between Hyde Park Rd.and Bishops lodge road. Need to be inside of Paseo de Peralta and moving south. Good coverage along I-25 towards Albuquerque
alltel network. no reception on digital but anolog was average with a Motorola startac. I was told by Alltel representative cell phone primaryly digital now and getting away from analog. No reception from mile marker 30 to mile marker 75. I was told only tower was in farmington,new mexico
Reception in most of the Los Ranchos area is nonexistant due to the fact that the village covenants prohibit any towers. Since I live and work in that area, it makes life very difficult at times. Oddly enough, I have great reception at my house (the only reason I keep this service.) Down the street from my house, there is none. Many places in and around Albuquerque are very sketchy. Everyone in my family has Sprint so that makes it hard to change but when my contract is up, I will seriously be looking at something else.

We really got had with this phone deal. The phone will say it has service but if you can get a call to go out, the battery will be flat in minutes. You can't leave the phone on for any length of time either. It will be flat within an hour or two.
I can get as many as 5 bars and the phone claims it cannot find the network. It's a self-inflicted denial of service having Sprint for a carrier; my wife has no trouble with T-Mobile. My Sprint contract runs out this month and I am firing them. I want a Treo 650, but if I have to have Sprint, no thanks.
