Cell phone near the base

tater · 10-08-2002, 09:24 AM

If there is anyone that lives out by Gate 3 (Cedar Cove) of Nas Pax, and has a cell phone company where the service actually works, I would greatly appreciate that tidbit of info. I guess all the radars and what-not play havoc with them, and was just wondering if anyone smarter than me (and there's a lot of ya), has a work-a-round or some advice. Thanks

I live in Cedar Cove and I use Verizon Wireless. Mine works fine but I think it depends on what phone you have too. Some phones have different boosters. I get about 3 bars back there so its fine for me. My financee has Cell one and he doesn't get any reception.

Check out this article from the Washington Post: http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn...2002Sep28.html

You can see by clicking on the map labeled Choosing a Wireless Plan that Verizon has the best coverage in St. Mary's county.

Very cool. Thanks you two

Yeah... Verizon Wireless is probably the way to go.

Mine works fairly well...except in some spots of the house...so I can't move around too much.

And yes, it does depend on the phone also. One of my friends with Verizon (who had a different phone) was able to have very good reception at my place...I think it was a Kyocera phone.

I had Cingular prior to Verizon Wireless...and had absolutely NO SERVICE inside my home although it worked ok as soon as I got to the 2nd gate.

Dude... just be sure you don't use it while driving on the base... see other thread...

I think Dude got much older and a little wiser and probably has solved the problem by now.

I tried to call and tell you the answer, but my phone isn't compatible with 2002.
