Is USCC expanding into the Washington D.C area!?!

[tritium man]

I ask this because...

I roam when at work(out of my home area) The past several days my roaming indicator (the triangle) goes off for a couple of hours and then comes back on. This happens daily could USCC be expanding into this market and be testing cellular sites? If no why would i not be roaming? I have the Moto Electrify.

I don't think they own any spectrum there... I could be wrong though.

What's really interesting,, the open signal map program show's the network I'm roaming on as us cellular? Again today the roaming notification disappeared for a few hours.

Hmmm that's odd. Their 4G vendor King Street Wireless is based in Alexandria right across the river... maybe they are running local tests for their 4G technology and not actually building out but just running network tests and maybe some other CDMA technology is included in the testing and that's what your picking up on?

I work in Gaithersburg MD, Open signal maps shows the closest tower at just 3/4 of a mile away. I live in Martinsburg WV, we will not have 4g coverage there till end of summer.

I meant maybe their testing some technology in areas their not building towers. Like a research lab type thing at king streets HQ but not something they will end up perminently building out there.
