Re: Radios and Best Locations (A Great List of 47 Cities Listed!!!)

Irvine, CA (92612):

Sprint 1.11.00f
-85dbm -15db (worse all around)
-heat: hotter than verizon but could be similar

Verizon 1.03.03v -78dbm -10db
-high: -82dbm -13db
-low: -74dbm -7db
-avg: -77dbm -11db
-heat: noticeably hotter than Telus

Telus 1.04.05v
-high: -80dbm -12db
-low: -73dbm -8db
-avg: -76dbm -10db
-heat: coolest running, noticeable throughout long term usage

*Signal/noise (lower the better) recorded under weather loop
*Heat subjectively observed after 30 min of video streaming (different times of the day)

Whittier, CA (90604) - did not write down the numbers, but by comparison under same tests it was similar: Telus > Verizon > Sprint
