Re: Not horrible Next time you go down that way and you're going through Cave City, take the road back to Mammoth Cave National Park. I assume it's because it's a National Park and they don't allow commercial equipment installation but there is ZERO ATT/Cingular coverage in the park area. That's one of the few places I've stumbled on where even EDGE doesn't function.
Wondering if anyone with another cell service has had any luck in that area?

We walked down to the entrance (been in it many times before) just so the daughter could take some pictures. No tours that day. They had lost power. Sprint just entered a roaming agreement with bluegrass (which cwire is correct) covers that area. To my insider info, it's data roaming too. However, I did roam (digital) a few times while at the park but never no service on the phone. ALLTEL and BG to my knowledge are the big carriers in that area. Verizon has roaming agreements too in that area (looking at their map, eastern ky is mostly roaming except Louisville). US Cellular looks to have the whole area covered as roaming also. As you well know, there are lots of mom and pop cell companies with a few towers and money to spend for covering the back woods. Remember, phones do have a big part to play in how well your reception is. My SCP7500 works way better then my sons A900 samsung but in my experience, Sanyo phones seem to do better in reception then other high end phones. |
