This is great info - I posted on here a while back that they were upgrading to EDGE, but it's great to know exactly where and when.
Please keep posting if you know more! -Leemo |

its encouraging to know that they're doing it properly and not just upgrading london.etc. at least it looks like it will be bearable untill the phone gets 3g, but o2's 3g coverage is pretty bad

Very useful. Thanks bentoms!
For anyone interested, you can look up the base stations here: http://www.sitefinder.ofcom.org.uk/ (interface is pretty awful) |

Am I the only one thinking that this suggests that they may not go far, if at all, beyond 30%? If so, this is not at all impressive. Pretty unacceptable in fact.

Great info Bentoms, please do keep us up to date. Where the heck are getting this info from out of interest?

I would hope that this is just the 1st "big push" to get the big cities and other scattered stations upgraded, and that they'll keep going behind the scenes for a while yet. A lot of the stations just require the upgrade to EDGE, but some will first require a chunkier backbone to cope with the increased traffic, which of course will take more time.

Me too, but somehow I doubt that this is the case.

May sound selfish, but we've got plenty of coverage in the TS area, so I'm content.
