Finley they have gotten the Cell phone service working in Mulege, although not up to 100 % yet it is a start.

Bruce...
Have you heard if they have installed an antenna up on the 'Tiburon' microwave tower, south of town?

who's the provider??
i agree with Marv's sentiments but as only a frequent visitor with work going on stateside, this is GREAT news for me, now if only verizon will dial
me in - can't wait to try it when i return, likely not before oct.
if anyone drives thru with a verizon phone tell me please if it worked and which network option A or B got it to receive/send.
thx.

Don't worry Marv
Now you can stay in touch with the authentic Mexican village just to the south of you.

I talked to the engineer today and he said that the it will work on most of the beaches south of Mulege if you get the 12 volt house phone that they
sell with the small antenna that sticks up from the back. a lot of the ranches in the mountains between here and Santa Rosalia have these and they
work very well.

Mike, I believe
that it's the "old bag phone".
That is what they're using south of San Felipe. Uses analog .

I think they have some in Santa Rosalia for sell they are digital. as for the cost of the time we sell one phone card that gives you 800 minuets for
500 pesos.
