I have used a Pac Bell PCS cell phone for the past two years, with no
serious problems. The coverage is pretty good, at least where I need it.

Rio Works well
Coast Works from 92 over and then south, and then half way to 84, then
nothing.
        Then it works in and around D Port
        Then it starts to work in TOWN (SC)
Tahoe Works in the parking lot of most resorts that I ride at, and works in
Reno.

The main reason that I have stayed with this phone is the Tahoe coverage
that is very consistent. All the other people at our firm have switched
over to Sprint and they have been pretty happy with the coverage. But I
know that Sprint has not yet built out Tahoe (although they have VEGAS and
Reno/Tahoe is in the works, just do not know when it will be done.)

I would like to hear what different people have experienced in the above
areas (Rio, Coast, Tahoe) with GTE, Sprint, Cell One, ATT, etc. I am looking
to switch plans, but wanted to know what other people have been satisfied
with in these areas of coverage.

You can reply to the list or directly to me. I will post a digest of my
findings after I get a number of responses back.
Thanks in advance for the help.

Best Regards,

Gordon.
