Going up to the Western UP in Michigan in 2 weeks. Was up there 1 year ago, and digital coverage was adequate; wondering if anyone knows if they've improved coverage up there in the last 12 months. Specifically, Ironwood, Iron River, Crystal Falls, Iron Mountain, Champion/Michigamme, Baraga and the snowmobile trails in between. Thanks so much for any info on your experience with digital coverage up there.
I can say Champion, Michigamme and Baraga is much improved and is digital, however if you head west from Baraga on M-38, service ends about 2 miles out of town. When I went to the Alltel store today, I did notice the coverage that the national plan shows online is vastly different than the coverage the store had. At the store the UP is now checker bordered with many areas as roaming areas at that 59c/minute.
