|    Which cell tower am I connected to?    |

      From: erholtr@pobox.com              There are apps which report the exact cell tower that you're connected to       at any given moment but which of the identifiers that these apps provide       tells me the exact cell tower and sector antenna unique identifier?              The stress of this question is on the word "unique" since just knowing the       cell tower location in an Internet lookup database is not as useful as       knowing the exact identifier for the exact sector antenna connection.              This is an example of the sets of numbers which these apps report.       https://mobiletechtalk.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2019/11/2019-11-01-12.42.46.jpg              There is a mobile tower TAC, PCI, ECI & EARFCN reported by these apps.              What is the minimum combination of those identifiers that is exactly the       unique sector antenna the phone is currently connected to?              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
