Rivers, MB
Was in Fargo,ND in Sept. for Big Iron. made one phone call. Knew it would be expensive but needed to. Bill now says I called from Omaha 3G NE. A person from my cell phone carrier explained that if the tower closest to me was busy, another tower would pick it up. How could a tower in Nebraska pick up my call from ND? I know its flat in the Red River Valley but this seems a bit strange!
