skimom Posted June 17, 2004 Report Posted June 17, 2004 Anyone know how the cell phone reception is for Verizon at CB? Any better or worse than AT&T? What about other spots in the Poconos?
AtomicSkier Posted June 17, 2004 Report Posted June 17, 2004 Anyone know how the cell phone reception is for Verizon at CB? Any better or worse than AT&T? What about other spots in the Poconos? i have AT&T and it works great at CB.....Do you have TDMA or GSM? My friend has Verizon and gets horrid reception at our lakehouse, where i perfect reception and i pWnz him
joeskier Posted June 17, 2004 Report Posted June 17, 2004 verizon works great at CB. i haven't had too many problems with reception throughout the rest of the area either
nick malozzi Posted June 17, 2004 Report Posted June 17, 2004 i get great reception with verizon at CB. i find it hard to find places verizon dosent get a signal at. i know a ton of people who say veriozon's signal service sucks, and then i find out they are using a 3 year old phone. verizon works great as long as u replace your phone every so often, but that is the same for any company. if ur phone blows it dosent matter what company u go with.
joeskier Posted June 17, 2004 Report Posted June 17, 2004 i agree with jib. wheni bought my new phone a few months ago my reception seemed to be 10 times better with the new phone than the old one.
ThinkSnow Posted June 18, 2004 Report Posted June 18, 2004 Yeah Verizon has some pretty good coverage, and hard to find dead spots. I carry a Verizon phone for work and an AT&T phone personally, so I compare the two, and about the only spot At&T wins is at Blue MT... no Verizon there
sibhusky Posted June 18, 2004 Report Posted June 18, 2004 In some newspaper article I read last week, Verizon had the lowest complaint rate of all the "known" services. Although I have had some pockets of no reception using Verizon on my many travels to ski areas and our odyssey across the US last year, I have been very satisfied with them for years.
Margaritaville Skier Posted June 19, 2004 Report Posted June 19, 2004 It all boils down to where the cell towers are. Verizon owns theirs as does Nextel and T mobile. I think A T & T only owns towers in certain areas and lease tower transmission in other areas. I personally never had any luck with them. Best luck has been with T mobile and now Nextel. Had no problems on the trek north outta Margaritaville to CB . Like AMEX, I don't leave home without 'em.

chrisjur Posted July 11, 2004 Report Posted July 11, 2004 I have no problem with AT&T GSM at CB. I initially had a tri-mode phone (TDMA+GSM US+GSM Global) because I didn't trust their new GSM network yet and also because I travel to europe alot. But I switched to GSM-only back in January and haven't had any issues at all. Signal is great at CB.
