We promised to let you know when the cell tower at the Sousa farm on Cabot Plain is operational, and that seems to have happened!

We tried in vain to get information this afternoon; this evening we had an e-mail saying that someone was able to get service from Rte 15 today where there had been none previously; we checked with our neighbors, David and Val Covell, and they confirmed there definitely is a signal. Our source said it apparently "kicked in" between 3 and 4:30 this afternoon. He also mentioned 3G service may be available in this area in April. 3G microcell

Since we don't have cell phones, we'll have to depend on others to let us know if there are still dead spots with no signal. We still have not had any response from some of the calls Fred made late this afternoon, but may hear from someone tomorrow, and if so, we'll post anything that is newsworthy.

We're starting off February 2011 with cell service at Joe's Pond!

Jane,

My builder and plumber have AT&T cell phones and reported that recently they have 3 bars at my camp where previously they barely got service, so some improvement has been put in place. I have Verizon Wireless and haven't yet noticed any change.
