I can't find the post that was here a few months ago talking about cell phone reception on/near the lake.

I need to find a new cell phone carrier because I can't get a signal to my current phone (a Nextel) out at Markley Marine. On that thread, there was a strong agreement that Verizon was the best.

Has anyone used or currently have ATT Wireless, and, do you get good reception near/on the lake?

I have ATT, and it is not that great out on the lake. My wife has Verizon and it works OK.

Icewoz,

Go with Verizon. Best reception on the Lake period. Even on the Canadian side.

What he said. Period. Been on the lake since 1987, had a cell phone since 1988.

I never had a problem with my Nextel out there.

I'm also at Markley and my Verison works there and on the lake no problem.

I think I commented in the original thread........ Verizon! Noone I know using other companies has reception that equals mine out on the lake.

If anybody is looking to sign up for Verizon online, please use the link below, or the banner on the right. You'll be doing your part in supporting LSCN!

I have AT&T. Used to be on the "digital" plan. Worked very well, got reception everywhere.
Recently, I got a new phone and changed over to the "Next Generation" type plan. HORRIBLE reception! Especially bad on Lakeshore/Jefferson.
Good Luck!
