How is coverage in San Diego/La Jolla

[Guest]

Archived from groups: alt.cellular.sprintpcs (More info?)

I'm on my way out there in a few hours and the archive
comments on this are a bit dated.

Can anyone let me know how coverage is in the area these days?

Thanks very much! DGI

PS: I checked the SPCS site, but the maps are so vague it's hard to
put any trust in them. Thanks again.

I do pretty nicely pretty much anywhere I go in San Diego and LJ. I
can't say I get around all that much, though. I'm able to use it in my
home in Mira Mesa, in my client's office in "The Village" La Jolla, in
Balboa Park, in downtown, etc...

In case anyone else is interested, I spent several days
traveling around San Diego and La Jolla and had rock solid service
everywhere I went. Never failed. Good strong signal - got through
first time and held every time.

Yep, same here. I was in and around Oceanside and Camp Pendleton also and
got great coverage.

I've been saying this since forever, but the SprintPCS apologists think
its fine to put out only small scale maps that ignore all the known dead
zones.

Where are your copmplaints about this regarding all the other
carriers? You said that they all do it, then where are your
complaints?

I understand your criticism - the maps are awful. But to put a
positive spin on things, I do find that I get far, far better and more
detailed information here. The reason I followed up my original post
is so that now anyone like myself wishing to find more up-to-date
information on this subject can check the archives.

Adaptability and imagination - keys to a great society.

Also your local newgroup would be a source of information.

I'm in NYC, but travel for business. I was also just in Fort
Worth, where I had rock-solid service, but that's been reported here
widely already.

SprintPCS Executive Services is located in Fort Worth. One would
expect it to be a place of good coverage. Kansas City is likely best.
