T-Mobile adds low-frequency LTE to hundreds of cell sites

In a tweet disseminated today, Ray noted that T-Mobile added low-band 4G LTE coverage to hundreds of sites over the last two weeks. Just a month ago, the nation's third largest but most innovative wireless operator added more low-band LTE to over 100 sites. T-Mobile's low band LTE spectrum employs 600MHz and 700MHz coverage. The 600MHz airwaves were won last year in an FCC auction. T-Mobile spent $7.9 billion and purchased 31MHz of 600MHz spectrum that has already paid off for the carrier.
You can see if your city was among the hundreds that received low-band LTE spectrum by staring at the map embedded in Neville Ray's tweet found below. Press the arrow to start the gif.
Our network team added lowband LTE to 100s of sites in just two weeks, which means more and better coverage. And #WeWontStop!! @TMobile @MetroPCS #AcrossTheGrid pic.twitter.com/hrXAtgZvQM
