    I was given to sets of number for 2 cell sites. 105A05 is one and 103103 is the second site.Does anyone know how sprints cell ids work and mean??? Or where these 2 are. There close 2 each other because I was told my phone was between the 2 sites. Thanks

    Those Cell ID's are radio ID's specific to a site's base station. The only way to know the information is to have access to Sprint's internal database, or use your phone in engineering mode (if it has it) and search for it.

    If you want to find the clsoest FCC registered towers, got run a query at fcc.gov on the Antenna Structure Registration database:

    FCC - Antenna Structure Registration (ASR)

    The problem is most of Sprint's cell sites are not FCC registered. Especially here in CA.

    Maybe not the structure (they don't own them all anyway) but the BTS license will be and you can search for it on
    http://wtb.fcc.gov
