I'm also in Mia/Fla currently using the Telus V1.04.05V radio with great results, before i had the Sprint Raphael Radio V1.03.15F also great performance. Will recommend any of them.

Pittsburgh PA, used all of the radios.

Telus radio is working the best. More bars (1-2 on avg.) than any of the sprint radios especially indoors. Data is not much different though.

Couldn't tell you, im on MetroPCS, 1X allways, and on a regular day my battery last around 10 to 12 hours depending on usage.

The Telus radio has served me well ... 1-2 bars more than the Sprint radios, although the data speeds seem to be about equal. The main thing that I have noticed ... the Telus runs much cooler for me.

Hi guys, I think the point of this thread was to post your location and radio that works best. I think it was a very good idea and thread so all thanks again PintozozDIAM. Hopefully people will do so and it will be especially useful for people that are joining the Diamond forum and want to know the best radio for their market. Reading through the sticky thread, I would have to say that Boston tends to like the new 1.11.00f radio. Thanks again.

In Orlando area- Telus definitely works the best. Using with MightyROM4.4.3.
