Spectrum Auction 2021

@RKhan21 I witnessed the new 2490 earfcn in NSG, but it's not deployed in my area site or my side sector. I get that earfcn only when I go outdoors. It's rsrp is very low, -120 only that too outdoors.

new carriers need hw upgrade too will take time to reach every site

 

[ak8757]

Even in circles which had only 20mhz in b40 before won,t see extra b40 earfcn every where as its a hw level upgrade in those circles.Some places will get it first some will get it later

I think when they make it 10Mhz block I will get it, maybe dual carrier B5 needs extra ports to be connected.

@RKhan21 any spectrum deployment from airtel ?

 

[RKhan21]

@iamvish08 Airtel Deployed nothing. Didn't even change EARFCN

Yes Jio's B3 B5 and Airtel's 15/20MHz B3

 

[ak8757]

Jio added 10mhz B40 in BH and JH.and sadly after that 40+40 which used to work before disabled by them.Tested many sites same result
