    cell phone reception

    Do you guys have reception on the water on Dale Hollow? I know most of the lakes around here in Ohio it is hit and miss. A couple guys I am going down there with were wondering.

    ATT has no service on the lake at all. Coming out of Burkesville you have service until the 8 mile marker then it is VERY spotty going down 61. I bought a Verizon pay as you go cell phone just for Dale Hollow. The plan that I got does not cost me a penny until I make a phone call, then it is unlimited $3 for the full day until midnight. At first I had a Frankfort Kentucky number and I was constantly roaming on the phone down there so I changed and got a Celina TN number and now I don't roam at all down there. Sprint, Bluegrass Cellular and Verizon are the only 3 that I know that has service down in that area consistently. ATT says they are going to try and get a tower in the area but they have been saying this for 4 years. When you cross the TN state line there is a store on the right then another on the left. Just before the store on the left you can pull off the side of the road and there is about a 100 yard stretch that you have ATT service.

    I was at Dale maybe 3 years ago. I've got Verizon and it was very spotty all over the lake.
