Nevada County, California Customers Receive More 3G Coverage With A New Verizon Wireless Cell Site
Investment increases consumer value as demand grows for calls, e-mail, text, web, video and music.
WALNUT CREEK, CA — Nevada County residents, businesses and visitors are enjoying improved service thanks to a new Verizon Wireless cell site. The site expands 3G wireless coverage in:
•Grass Valley – Including Nevada Union Technical High and Sierra College and surrounding area
The increase in network coverage and capacity means more calls, e-mails, text and picture messages for locals, plus expanded wireless access to the web.
Verizon Wireless invested over $684 million in California during 2008 to enhance service and coverage. Nationally, the company has invested more than $50 billion in its network since it was formed in 2000. The result is the nation’s largest, most reliable 3G network that powers services such as Mobile Broadband and e-mail.
Businesses of any size can tap into the power of Mobile Broadband. The service allows users to connect to the Internet wirelessly while on the go, to download music over-the-air, and access e-mail or corporate data. For example, customers can download a small 1 megabyte PowerPoint® presentation in about eight seconds and upload the same-sized file in less than 13 seconds.

Verizon Wireless tests its network and those of its competitors. The company determines if voice calls and data connections are successful on the first attempt and stay connected. Nationally, Verizon Wireless' real-life test men and women drive about 90 specially equipped vehicles almost 1 million miles annually. They drive on Interstate, U.S. and state highways, as well as major roads and streets in high-population areas, based upon U.S. Census counts. Vehicles are equipped with computers that automatically make more than three million voice call attempts and more than 16 million data tests annually on Verizon Wireless' network and the networks of other carriers.
