Cingular expanded into Dutchess/Ulster/Orange Counties NY last year but up until recently had abysmal service in those areas...They were mostly using TMobile towers with a few Cingular owned towers sprinkled in... I was pleasantly surprised recently when my wife had continuous service in the area with no interruptions or dropped calls... I dialed *611 to see what network she was on and it turned out to be Cell One...

Is Cingular in an agreement to use Dobson's towers as it's default in this area rather than putting up their own infrastructure?
