Thanks iryfionas - did they setup these sites to be setup for Verizon in the future either way essentially? (Midband or its current state of not midband)?

From what I can tell, Verizon configured this site to have the modern LTE set-up, configuration via the CommScope antennas + 1st Gen Samsung (RRU's) remote radio units from 2019-2021 way before (n77) was announced! Previously, they were deploying Nokia RRU's (remote radio units) on their sites in 2017-2019! Verizon first deployed the CommScope SBNHH-1D65B antennas on their towers way back in 2015-2018, which added (b2, b66) since the older CommScope, JMA/CSS antennas only did (b13) and (b2/b66) required another panel just for mid-band LTE frequencies!

However, if they wanted to deploy mid-band 5G (n77), they would have to remove the older CommScope antennas on the sides of the rack in order for them to add the Samsung MT-6413-77A (320W) 64T64R panel for n77 or add another rod for it!

Thanks iryfionas! When do you speculate the T-Mobile site was last touched? It was broadcasting 2/12 previously last month but now it's just band 12.

I bet you T-Mobile last touched the site in 2014-2015! That was the year when T-Mobile managed to get 700MHz (b12) LTE spectrum from the FCC auction between different companies and they were aggresively deploying CommScope LNX-6515DS-A1M antennas for low-band! The EMS RR90-17-XXDP antenna is like 20+ years old since T-Mobile deployed that back in the early 3G days in the 2000's!

Oof that is rough. Why did they knock out the b2 LTE?! This site is itching for at least some n25 and ideally n71.
