hi all
im wondering if someone could point me in the direction of a site that lists and hopefully has maps of mast sites in the farcet area outside peterborough.
ideally i would like to know which operator(s) are using which one.

its just a bit of research on my part to see if i could go with another operator for my mobile phone and mobile broadband
to receive the best signal possible.
most of the postcode checkers on the operator websites are patchy and dont give good info at best

Remember topography though, it's not always the nearest mast / provider that is the best! Although in most cases it helps to know where they are.

Luckily the mast for my network provider is in the farmers field about 1/2 a mile from my house in the fields at the back, and when you stand up there you can see my house! I get full 3G signal, which is great.

Be aware though that Sitefinder is updated voluntarily by the networks and is now very out of date.

According to that site I have a base station just at the top of my road, no wonder I always get a full signal.
