AFAIK there is still no AT&T service from the SPW tower. I have an AT&T prepaid phone so I'm definitely well aware of which areas are blanks on their coverage map...and DV for the most part is one of them.
I do have service up on Panamint Butte, which I suspect is coming from the Cerro Gordo area.
The proposal for overhauling the facilities on Rogers Peak includes a bid by AT&T to put wireless antennas up there.
To have a better idea where AT&T has towers, use their coverage map but be sure to choose "AT&T Prepaid coverage" from the dropdown:
Coverage map
That shows no coverage in the heart of DV. However, it also doesn't show coverage around the Hwy 6 - Hwy 265 junction (west of Tonopah), and I was just there and know for a fact there's a random AT&T tower there! So it's not completely up to date.
But it is correct in showing that I still have nada in Tonopah.
In fact, there's a large swath of Nevada that isn't covered. Fortunately my T-Mobile hotspot helps me out there!
UPDATE: when I passed through Beatty a few days ago, I found that there now is AT&T service there! I got a message notification while making my Eddie's World pit stop. Took a peek and sure enough, 4G LTE!
Maybe all my griping to AT&T is finally paying off.
