    Default Update for Susquehanna County Area

    NEP, the local phone company has now put in 40some(?) towers in the area, using GSM service. from what I hear the coverage is now very good in this recently wide open dead space hole. But, as of now, the only roaming agreement that they have is with Cellular One. So, apparently, if you are on T-Mobileicon or Cingular you can not roam on their towers. Which is a bummer for me since I'm on Cingular. But, we may soon be switching to Cellular One.

    That's true they have Better
    Coverage than any Carrier
    in that area.


    You can roam on them
    if you roam too much they will
    inquire about it.
    Did you check their coverage Map?
    - 3 Billion GSM Users by 2009.
    - 700 GSM Carriers in 220 Countries
    - 82% of the Global Market
    45,000 Cell Sites and Adding.

    Hopefully Cingular & T-Mobileicon will work out a roaming agreement with them, especially if this is a really bad area for other carriers.

    Hopefully, but why they are Showing Cingular
    as their National Roaming Partner may still
    be in the works.
