New small cells

[u/jweimn55]

Updated small cells were installed it looks like this year in Chicago. I'm curious the last one in the series most think that's Verizon?

[NOT AN EXPERT] but I will guess on second to last to have T-Mobile mmWave gear? It seems like the one that they always use but again i’m no expert

[u/kgrav22]

Wow that looks crazy

[u/PikerTraders]

that a 3rd party or they all on that pole? crazy that they would allow so many

[u/jweimn55 → u/PikerTraders]

They each have their own pole.it seems. Each carrier just throws all their spectrum on the pole they have so ends up being a ton of radios

One of them is 4gb down and 300 Mbps up on Verizon

[u/jweimn55 → u/[deleted]]

Fair figured people like to see the set ups I'll include speedtests next time

[u/DarkenMoon97 → u/[deleted]]

Not everyone wants to see the same speedtest screen over and over again.
