New Towers In Service for AT&T
 
In today's paper (8/15) there was an article that the two new cell towers for AT&T are now up and running. Has anyone noticed improvement in their AT&T signal?

Now have 5 bars inside the house. Used to be only two. Yeah.

We're in Tamarind Grove...in the last few days we've noted a remarakable improvement...4 bars...4G. Knew nothing about the activation of two towers until the Daily Sun called yesterday. Anybody want a very unused MicroCell? It never worked here for us.

Yup, 5 bars, even in the house. YEA

Hooray, now I can talk without going outside with the phone; had given up hope!:clap2::clap2::clap2:

Did the article mention where the towers are located?. What good news! That will help us Consumer Cellular folks, too.

Yeah

I was giving them until the end of September before I switched. Anybody live south of 466A who can tell me how the service is there? Thanks.

Sanibel 3 bars inside and outside house. It's an improvement but not much.

I suspect that as the new growth south of 466A continue to expand down towards 44/44A, this same issue with cell phone reception will crop up for those southernmost areas.

Only have one bar here. Wait two, no three, no two. Well not consistant. At home in Charlotte I have two bars so I'm going to get the mini tower.

AT&T Towers
 
Anyone in the Village of Buttonwood notice any improvement. My house is in the Patio Village area of Buttonwood and I had very little to none for service when I was there in April. Appreciate hearing from my neighbors in Buttonwood to see if things have changed. :highfive:

This is good news! ATT service (which I have) is dreadful in the southern part of the Villages. In fact ATT service kinda sucks EVERYWHERE!
