Locating verizon towers

Im trying to locate verizon evdo towers, but i cant seem to find any with the sites recommended here. Are verizon's towers registered under a different name, or is there a separate place to go to for locating verizon towers? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Verizon will tell you where their towers are (not the exact address) if you ask nicely. I do know that some of their supposed Level II techs don’t know anything about what they are supporting. That is why I recommend buying your entire system from a place like 3gstore.com so you can qualify for free support. Those folks know their stuff and they are in the USA! What a concept support for Americans by Americans.

Check out antennasearch.com to find the local towers. If you can get a tech they will give you a general location. Then use the above site to find out exactly where they are.

antennasearch.com has very questionable data. Also try cellreception.com

Also Verizon have a lot of towers that do not say Verizon. A lot of Towers by Crown are Verizon if that helps.

thx for all the info guys. I live in a fairly populated area, and i can only find a couple crown castle towers within 10 miles of me. i expexted to find more, or at least one closer to my house. is there any other name verizon towers go by? or am i just coincidentally in an area without many verizon towers?

Call Verizon Wireless Customer Service ask them to pull up their Coverage Locator and tell them you want to know where the cell tower closer to you is. They have that information. They can even send you a map of the image from the coverage locator, in the locator it gives them the option to email it to you.

The coverage locator they have looks like this but on steroids.
