I was surprised at how "little" was already on the map. I thought to correct that and I tried adding my own. After placing 3 dead-zones and 2 1-bar zones near my house, I ran into a 5-per day add-signal limit. I suppose I might come back to it on another day, but I am not sure... I had imagined I would drop dozens of T-mobile High, Medium, Marginal and Zilch spots in the areas I am way too familiar with, but that seems unlikely now. Meanwhile, I know the signal strength to be highly conditional, even by time of day. That is why I started with the easy part "zilch"... - steve ============================================================ FRIAM Applied Complexity Group listserv Meets Fridays 9a-11:30 at cafe at St. John's College lectures, archives, unsubscribe, maps at http://www.friam.org
