HI, I was just wondering if there was a way to find out where the tower you are connecting to is. If anyone knows, please help me. I would like to find a way to know the exact location of the tower whose signal I am recieving becasue I would like to know if there are more than one towers in my area. Sometimes i point my cantenna in one direction and it gets a decent signal, but when i point it in the opposite direction it gets a decent signal too. I live in a fringe area and to the entire east of my house is no reception, so there might be a tower to the north of me, as well as one south? I'm trying to figure this out. Is there any ##DEBUG or ##DATA or something like that that would help me find out the locations of the broadcasting antennas or towers? I have the new sprint connection manager as well as the older novatel U727 mobile broadband connection manager.
