Verizon...GREAT...that is who I have for cell phone service. I don’t need to surf the web. I don’t need aps. I just want to make a phone call! At least 10 percent of the time I can’t get or keep a connection in SouthWest Florida. I have been told they are the best provider in the area. Been told just not enough “towers”. How many freaking towers does it take to get cell signals into a major hospital in downtown Sarasota????

Three. One to provide signal, the other two to provide location info to the NSA....................

Actually, if your problem is inside the hospital, towers don’t much matter. With all of the noise sources, hospitals in general are notoriously bad for cellular service. The typical outer walls make the issue even worse.
