Comment Re:Dropped call rate of 0.1%?! (Score 1) 187
From TFA,
"The GWS drive tests also revealed that 98.59 percent of voice calls connected over the AT&T network nationwide are completed without interruption. That's a difference of about one-tenth of one percentage point, or one call in 1,000, from the only higher score in the industry."
So no, they do not drop only 1 out of 1000 calls, they drop more like 15 out of 1000 calls.
Not that my anecdotal evidence has any weight, but I personally experience more like a 5 to 10% dropped call rate with AT&T (one time I was dropped 4 times in a half hour).
