A friend of mine who fishes with me has a Cingular phone that seems to work some of the time on the sword grounds.I love my Verizon,but it is useless past 10 miles offshore.

Cingular for me. I go up on my tower for better signal. Boat's with no tower install car antenna on outrigger with tie rap work's well. :lol:

Same here, west of the 50.5 seems to work better. East of the 49 and nada

My Cingular gets nothing. Sprint I used all the time no problem.
