AT&T generally unavailable across Orcas Island. Nothing here at our home. A little in Eastsound, depending--the Wash Fed parking lot is decent. No carrier has decent coverage on the island. The County is working to changge the NIMBY cell tower rules; hope this means cell companies improve this situation soon.

No recpetion with my apple Iphone with AT&T

I want to get a new Apple phone and understand that you have to use AT&T service. Does anyone have any experience with this carrier on Bainbridge Island? Do you know if the 3G feature will help reception? Thanks

AT&T has no coverage in Microsoft Campus, buildings 16-17-18 despite official coverage map says it has "Best coverage". It's annoying as hell.

we have lived in this area for 9 yrs now and still ZERO phone reception. Now T-Mobile has been tried, At& T and Cingular as well. T-Mobile is teh ABSOLUTE WORST as for Cingular and AT&T we could get reception if we went about a mile down the road. We in this area have been BEGGING for cell phone service out here and they all say "we are woking on it" I SERIOUSLY doubt they are.

The north tip of the Surf Side Estates in Ocean Park gets NO reception for Cingular / AT&T phones at this point in time(Nov 2007). Dr.to town though and it is fine.

A T and T was very poor on Orcas. Spring / Nextell are putting in a new tower on Lopez that will proivide reception to this area. Verison has a site at the Orcas Ferry but as you move aeway to the east rception falls off in about 1 / 4 to 2 miles traveled. There is no one good carrier on Orcas Island. At and T is probably one of the worst, Verizon and Nextell occasionally work.

I just moved in to a beautiful apartment building, but I have absolutely no reception for a two-block radius. Most of the rest of Cap Hill and the CD is spotty, as well; unfortunately, my new home seems to be the worst.

with Trac phone and Cingular we get absolutely NO SERVICE at our location
