New Cell Site Means Clearer Reception, Fewer Dropped Calls
OVERLAND PARK, Kan., Oct. 26 /PRNewswire/ -- VerizonWireless, the wireless company with the highest customer loyalty, has activated a new cell site in Dickinson County, Kan., which will enable more customers to use their wireless phones concurrently to make calls; send and receive email and text, picture and video messages; access the Internet; view high-quality videos; and download music, games and ringtones, while enjoying clearer reception and fewer dropped calls.
The new cell site improves Verizon Wireless voice and data coverage along I -70 between Junction City, Kan. and Abilene, Kan., including in the towns of Chapman, Kan. and Enterprise, Kan.
