Not strange at all, since the tower might not have your providers antennas on it. For many years we camped in a campground with a cell tower just outside it and had only 1X service on Verizon and nothing on AT&T, since it was a US Cellular tower. That tower is still there, but AT&T and Verizon added other towers in the area and both have service in the campground, just not off that tower. But , the particular tower 'in question' supposedly had our services antennas on it . Goes around , comes around . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We were just in two locations with no AT&T for miles, Diamond Lake OR and 10 miles West of Lakeview OR. We have also been in places a pesky hill or mountain blocked the tower. Agreed... That's why we have both AT&T and Verizon plans. Although I can say that we have yet to land in a location where we didn't have both services at some level. Just one often better than the other. When we're in an area where our AT&T signal is stronger than Verizon, we use a VOIP app on our Verizon phones to make and receive calls. For heavy duty streaming though, we prefer AT&T.
