AT&T cell site across from Grand Sierra Resort moved once again

The AT&T cell site across from the Grand Sierra Resort has been moved once again. Earlier this year the site was moved a few hundred yards west to make room for a new Wal-Mart that will be constructed on the site. In the past few days a new pole has been placed atop a billboard on the property next to Hwy395, and additional antennas have been installed vertically on the pole.

In the picture you can see the temporary and permanent antenna structures. The top of the temporary antennas are even with the bottom of the billboard, and just to the left of it – barely “seeing” above the freeway structure. The new, permanent pole extends above the top of the billboard. With the added height and additional antennas, this site should also increase coverage inside Renown Medical Center’s new expansion.
