Sprint even works on Mare Island where I've never had service before.

There's a few dead spots for every carrier: Hwy 121 between Sears
Point and Hwy 12, Hwy 12 heading into the backside of Santa Rosa, 101
between Petaluma and Novato at the dump and so on.

The power lines on McDowell Rd. mess up the coverage along 101 through
Petaluma at the Pengrove exit. Sprint seems to work ok there.

Cingular works great up in the Santa Rosa Airport area but there's not
much difference between Cingular and Verizon as far as reception goes
in most other areas except around Oakland.
