MetroPCS
The tower is on White Settlement at Carrol. Going West, there is a perfect signal to Bailey at White Settlement. The next very short block drops 2 of 5 bars. Going NW on N Bailey, one block drops another bar or more. Anytime your in a structure, you have just about lost all service. Sometimes, EARLY(3am) in the morning hours you may have a good service? (3bars?). It is not usable. Blackberry is great with full signal! With a marginal single it just is junk.

No problems at all with reception for this carrier, just a little expensive!

The reception on my phone and my wife's LG Vue sucks bad. It's bad all the way up 7th / Camp Bowie to the Museum. Reception is even worse up by the museum. Don't get AT&T if you plan to live anywhere between downtown and Montgomery Street.

I live less than a mile from a Sprint Store south of I20 in City View. I get nothing. You'd think I lived in BFE!

Practically a dead spot for at least a half mile radius from this intersection! If you have a phone that has great RF performance (Nokia, Motorola and maybe HTC) you can expect to get average reception on GSM and below average reception on 3G while outside - inside that will drop to poor reception on GSM and mostly no reception indoors - yes, I tested Nokia 6800's and Motorola V3's too (all, you will note, non-3G phones). If you do NOT have a great RF performing phone then you will get below average reception to poor reception on GSM and poor to no reception on 3G - inside that will, again, drop to poor to no reception on GSM and mostly no reception on 3G. In any case your 3G phone will hand off from 3G to 2G and back again several times an hour.

Have had no dropped calls (GSM / EDGE), although other friends with AT&T have. I think it has more to do with the great reception I get with my phone. Maybe, maybe not, but I've had no problems. Just about always have 4-5 bars.

I have to talk on my cell phone outside to hope to have a connection longer than 5 minutes as in the house will certainly produce a dropped call. I had T-Mobile working wonderfully but family member got me a discount on the phone and service. Sprint connection works well through out the metroplex... just not very well in my home.

Inside my house, I have no reception. Have to stand outside to make a call. Calls dropped frequently. Reported to Sprint. "Engineering" said there was no problem with network equipment. Must be the phone. When I told them my husband and I have identical phones with identical issue, Engineer said, "it may have been a bad batch of phones." Now, I see that this is a long-standing problem. No towers.

We moved to the area after having great service with Sprint for years in other cities. Now we can't get any reception inside our house and only 1 bar at times outside, but then it drops your calls immediately. I have heard from neighbors that spring knows about this problem for years and has been promising a new tower, yet nothing has happened yet. Just empty promises and we are stuck in contracts that we can't use. I'm switching ASAP. Spring customer service has been worthless despite being a customer for over 7 years... .
