Century Purchases Cellular Repeater http://www.northescambia.com/2011/07/can-you-hear-me-now-century-purchases-cellular-repeater Local News for Molino, Bratt, McDavid, Century, Walnut Hill, Cantonment Fri, 10 Apr 2026 15:38:29 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.9.2 hourly 1 By: Tina Adams http://www.northescambia.com/2011/07/can-you-hear-me-now-century-purchases-cellular-repeater/comment-page-1#comment-93095 Tina Adams Sat, 23 Jul 2011 04:28:25 +0000 http://www.northescambia.com/?p=61602#comment-93095 I want to know why the city can afford to spend $ 940.00 on this cellular repeater? But they can not or will not spent the money to put in a caution light at the intersection of Hwy 4 and Jefferson Ave. There are three crosses on one side and one on the other side of the road that mark wonderful people that lost their lives there. I know there are more but no marker to repersent them. After the accident that claimed the lifes of three children on April 11, 2008, there was an article in the paper stating that the city was going to put in a caution light at that intersection. I want to know what happen to it? I feel that LIVES are more important that cellular service. I guess if it were your son, daughter, mother, father, sister, brother, grandchild, friend that was killed there, it would have been done years ago. My call was dropped on April 11,2008 @ 10:20 PM when MY SON lost his life at this very intersection. There is NO kind of REPEATER of this kind of DROPPED CALL. Rest in PEACE Mikey, Jessica, Daniel, and all the others that have lost their lives at this intersection!!!! YA'LL ARE TRUELY MISSED!!!!

If communications inside the city hall is the problem, why can't a regular land line business phone with an extension number or intercom be used, there should be a land line phone in each office anyway, the city has a land line connection. I bet you could even make a phone call from inside the building with the land line. As for data, the office personnel could use the office computer or have laptops or netbooks with a wireless router. In any case I don't think the city hall is so large a person couldn't get up from their desk and walk to another persons office to talk to them. Just seems to me it's a lot of tax money spent unnecessarily. I guess I just don't see the need to use cell phones to communicate with each other inside a small building.

Bad move Att would work just fine in that building I bet, Att always worked in century without issue So rather than change to a cell provider that works they instead spend $940 of tax payers money to get a repeater for outdated nextel services.
