No coverage at all along Route 6 from Mansfield all the way to Warren, including the towns of Coudersport, Sweden Valley, Gaines, Ansonia, Rexford, Wellesboro, Galeton, and West Pike. Sprint provides service for Virgin Mobile customers. I urge Sprint to provide coverage in this area!

I think Verizon should put a tower up in Millerton. The reason being is not only to get cell service. There is a lot of accidents on the road I live on. I believe if we had cell service it would be more convenent. I can not tell you how many accidents I have came across and those people could not call out for help. It is non sense that we dont have any type of service no matter the phone, because it is a long route and when you are going through it you miss calls and a lot of people travel that road.
Two seperate times I needed to call 911 from the homedepot parking lot and both times the system was buisy. The first time I was in an accident and tried for about half an hour!

Verizon Wireless, can't hear anybody under normal conditions at this location. Appears the hills create a blind spot. The signal is dropped around this intersection and then is good for the balance of the area between The lutheran home at Topton and Macungie except for this brief blind spot.
On 715 I get no service. I get pretty good service if I stay around Stroudsburg but if I go up towards Mt. Pocono the service sucks. Talked to someone in Customer Care and they said that they would put a service request in. Don't know how long it would take but I'm not holding my breath. I think that there's not good service with a lot of these companies cuz of all the trees. I lived out in Arizona and my T-Mobile got excellent service.
Drove route 616 from Railroad to York New Salem with two new phones from Verizon and two old phones (two years old) from ATT. ATT is the winner. Along 616 Verizon had 0 bars to 1 bar. ATT had average of 2-3 enough that I could make a call. Glen Rock Boro - Verizon had 0, ATT had full strength. Seven Valleys Boro - Verizon had 0, ATT had 3-5 bars. Seven Valleys to Jacobus - Verizon had 1 bar, ATT had about 3. Heritage Rail Trail bet. Seven Valleys and Brillhart Station - Verizon had 0 to 1 bar, ATT had at least 3 in most spots, under the Howard Tunnel on the Rail Trail Verizon had 0 bars and ATT had 3. Outside of York New Salem - ATT was still better. We did not have a good signal with Verizon until we got closer to Richland Ave near York College.

March 2009 - Tested two (new) phones from Verizon and two phones on AT&T (two years old). Drove from Railroad Boro to York New Salem on Rte 616 then drove from New Salem to Indian Rock Elementary School near Richland Ave (more than 17 miles). Verizon only had 1 bar or none for most of the trip. AT&T had better signal - gave us enough bars to make calls. Inside Glen Rock Boro Verizon had nothing and AT&T had full strength. Inside Seven Valleys Verizon is zero and AT&T was good, abt 3 or 4 bars. Between Seven Valleys and Jacobus Verizon had one or two at the most, AT&T about 4 bars. On the Heritage Rail Trail between Seven Valleys and Brillhart Station-Verizon might have one or two bars at places, AT&T did better - 3 or more bars - also had signal inside Howard Tunnel on the Trail with ATT - not with Verizon. We are cancelling Verizon while we are still on our 30 day trial and keeping ATT.
