Susquehanna Pa 18847

Looks Like this is a Dead Zone
No Matter what Carrier you Choose.

A Repeater or soon Cell VOIP over Wifi
is the other option
to Get Home Coverage.

 

Verizon has coverage has coverage in the city, but it does not look too be that strong outside of it.

 

susquehanna is On the White area on that Map
"A DEAD ZONE"

 

What i Meant is the Verizon Coverage Map,
which Agent is Showing.
Cingular has their Own Map.

 

It all depends on how far you are from where she made the call, to tell if a wireless repeater or amp. would help you. There are numerous makes out there with people saying Wilson is the best for repeaters/amps. and I am assuming you are looking to use it at your house. Figure between $600 & $800 for a good unit.

Also one of the Mountains can be what's totally blocking your signal & no repeater/Amp can help if that is the reason for lack of signal for you.

 

I believe Verizon will work in that area. There is CDMA service there because my Alltel phone works there when I drive back home to New England. I believe CellOne of NEPA owns a CDMA system there.

If Cingular show's one that they sell, then I would say that would be the Make & Model you would want, since they have basically approved it's use by selling it.
I would go to that dealer in New Milford & see how much he wants for it & his experience and do some internet shopping for that unit to find the best price out there.

 

CellOne of NEPA Coverage Map
Does Not Cover Susquehanna.

 

Woops! You're right. My bad.

 

The only service that will work at this time in this area is Verizon or phones capable of roaming off verizon's towers. They recently put a tower in and I'm hoping cingular will piggy back off the tower someday. GSM signals will come through but only in certain areas..the hospital on the hill, prospect street park in susquehanna and on top of oak hill in oakland, but it is very scattered.

 

Where's this Tower In Susquehanna?
VZW Coverage Map Does Not Show Any?

 

Verizon coverage maps do not show towers. Typing in the zip code on their coverage locater indicates 18847 has coverage.

 

A Cell Tower should be in the Same Town
to Be Effective.
If you look at that Verizon Map it will tell
you that there's No Coverage in Susquehanna.

 

Does the name of the town determine the effectiveness of the tower or its placement?

It is plain to see that coverage in this area may be spotty. However anyone who follows cell phone forums should know by now that coverage maps of all carriers are not accurate and should not be relied on to determine coverage.

What should be noted is that Verizon's coverage locater indicates that the zip code is covered. They will sell phones to people in that zip code. Now that's not to say the coverage will be good but that zip code is covered.

 

If coverage maps are to be believed the cingular coverage map has a post it pin almost at dead center of zip code 18847 yet the legend on the map indicates only moderate coverage.

 

I am from PA. However, I am now living Canada. You were the only person to whom I could direct my question. I will be attending my High School 50th Year Senior Class Reunion next month. I would like to know if there is Bell Mobility Service from Pgh. to Philadelphia, Pa. Thank you.
I am sorry that I can not help you with your problem.
