www.antennasearch.com will show you exactly where all 4G antennas are.

AntennaSearch - Search for Cell Towers, Cell Reception, Hidden Antennas and more.

Type in your address, process your request, then click "View Antenna Results" Click the blue antennas on the map and the ones labeled "Clearwire Spectrum Holdings, lii, Llc" are the ones blasting out the 4G signal.
I live two miles within four Clearwire antennas, nuts!!! Zip code 78729.
Cant wait to get my EVO in a couple weeks!

I live in 78726. I'm surrounded in towers and antenna. Of the many are two clearwire antenna 1000ft and 3000ft from my front door. I get 0 to 1 bar of spotty (not reliable) 4G service. If I leave 4G active, it will drain the battery trying to maintain a connection to the 4G towers. Also, while I'm using the internet, as it is bouncing between 3G and 4G (because they are not compatible systems) it will constantly reassign IP addresses, causing havoc with what I'm trying to do (not to mention slowing it down to a crawl while it switches.) I've turned off 4G :-(

Hope you have better luck.

Seriously though is anyone else not getting the results to load? Mine just freezes up on processing.

so why cant i get 4g?

next 2 towers are 3.3miles away.

on the phone with sprint customer service and as luck would have it, i am in the middle of a 3g/4g hole. .5 miles east and .75 miles southwest and i will get 4g.

 

[HittingSmoke]

I wish it didn't take ten years to load.

I can't even get it to load... just sits at Processing for ten minutes without doing anything.

Sprint lists my entire county as having 4G coverage so I'm optimistic.

Wimax will come from non sprint and non clear towers. Towers own by other wimax party members will run wimax too. If the tower is owned by sprint and clear, it will, when the build it out, have a wimax tower.

Nice find, I was wondering why yesterday, I decided to try 4G at my office(Which according to Sprints Coverage map should be spotty) but I got 2 Full bars of 4G at my desk.

But at home(In my house), I barely get a 4G signal, even though my area is blanketed in it since it is near Philly.

Is it also possible I could have other kinds of interference at home?? I figured I would have more at work, considering I work around all different kinds of frequencies all day.


And just double checked....2 Full bars of 4G right now, at work.

Sorry to burst your bubble, but at my apartment (third floor) in 78727 I have a 200' Clearwire antenna a half-mile to the north and two more 100' antennas within two miles east and southwest, and my 4G at home is unreliable at best. The tower to the SW is practically line of sight.

Based on my experience, distance from the nearest Clear tower is not the best way to determine how good/bad your signal will be.

There's at least 6 towers within a 5 mi radius from where I live! can't wait till they turn those puppies on. SF Valley, Los Angeles.

 

[mrmikey32]

I use an fcc site, and one i have from when i worked for clear. if anyone has questions regarding them, i can do my best to answer. i used to install the towers

 

[facekl]

I have a clearwire antenna .13 miles from my house. I live in Southern California. Does that mean I will get 4G coverage when L.A. is lit up.

 

[jbsg02]

I too have 2 clearwire antennas within 1.5 miles of my house and can't seem to pick up 4G at my house. I can use wifi at my house though, so it's kinda irrelevant, but I'd like to atleast know I could get the serivce I'm paying for if I needed to use it.

 

[J03]

This site isn't working for me out here. Doesn't show any towers anywhere near me but all of Denver area is getting 4G and I drive by several wimax towers daily. Either its not clear or they haven't reported them yet?

BTW, it doesn't show those wimax towers at all, as anything.

 

[jsward12]

Not that accurate, there are 6 towers about 1/2 mile away from me, this only picks up one. I wonder when this was last updated.

 

[mrmikey32]

just because there is a tower, does not mean it is 4g/active

 

[ImmaSlave4U]

Can't get the list of towers in my area to load.

We unofficially have 4G here. The city is working on switching all there emergency response, police etc over to the 4G service as well as Comcast is going to be offering something to do with internet via 4G and Sprint's going to be using it for there 4G too.

When I'm down town, my phone clearly see's the 4G too but for some reason won't connect. I think it's not officially operating for Sprint yet though, still in the testing faze.

Anyway, it's there but not on the map.

Although I do like all the details you can get by clicking on the towers from the list... including contact names and phone numbers... and when they were serviced and when there were changes made on the tower... which does show ownership changes, but the tower itself is still listed under the old owner...

I went on antennasearch.com and it says there is a clearwire tower a block from my house. Does this mean I will get 4G? Is there anything in the description of the tower that tells you if it can broadcast 4G?

I wish some one would augment this into a layer of google maps...

It has been done. There is a kiosk in a mall down the street, run by Clear (same network), and they have an application that augments it into a layer on google maps and includes upcoming towers that they are working on but haven't gone live.

In February, there were about 5 towers that were supposedly ready to go live in March. Never did. They said they would then go live in June. Never did. I went back to the kiosk and they quoted August. We'll see.

The blame was placed on the local cities (Frisco and Little Elm, Texas) and Clear said it was a holdup in their approval, but that all the work was done.

Check to see if you have a Clear location near you. I wish they would post this data on the internet though so I could just check from home.

I have an antenna labeled "Clearwire Spectrum Holdings, lii, Llc" a block from my house. Does this mean, at some point I will get 4G. I keep asking this question and no one answers. Please answer!

 

[Yankees368]

that is a good indication, yes. however, it may take a long while before it is up and running

You can actually do it yourself fairly easy with Excel:

1. Go to AntennaSearch - Search for Cell Towers, Cell Reception, Hidden Antennas and more. and download the antenna results.. (be sure to pick antenna's not towers..or you will not get all the antenna's located on buildings..only stand alone towers)

2. Sort by owner (column N) then you can find the Clearwire antenna's. (in Excel this is DATA/SORT)

3. Delete all ROWS except for those with CLEARWIRE listed as owner.

4. Delete all the columns except the ones shown at the site below..

Save Only these columns...
Address, City, State, Zip

Export that list to
