New SPCS sites in Newbury Park, CA ???

Archived from groups: alt.cellular.sprintpcs (More info?)

And they are the biggest idiots complaining about no cell service! In the
area where I live, SPCS made a deal with the school district and put cell
antennas on an elementary and high school smokestack and repainted them as
part of the deal (and this is in one of the 'old money' areas of metro
Detroit-Grosse Pointe Park and Farms-there's an antenna in the tower of the
Grosse Pointe Yacht Club w/Cingular).
