Wind Mobile Towers in Vancouver
I and many others have been trying to get an idea of what Wind’s home zone is going to look like in Vancouver. Some info is available, but as far as I can tell there aren’t any maps yet. I went ahead and put one together, and although I make no claim to it’s accuracy the data comes straight from Industry Canada. Please note that these are base stations Globalive is licensed to build and they will not all necessarily be ready for launch.
It looks pretty expansive although I can already see some potential problems. I can’t wait to see what coverage will actually be later this quarter in Q1-Q3. Feel free to comment and share.
UPDATE: There’s an awesome, updated map available now. You can even overlay different carriers and zoom in on your area.

Any towers east of this, such as Abbotsford, Yarrow, or Chilliwack? (Please!)

Hi Bev,
Not at launch. Network is probably going to fade off around Langley for now, but I bet Abbotsford will get covered soon enough.
Good luck!

Just wanted to update that someone at HowardForums said Chilliwack is already covered. Not sure how accurate that is, but it would be pretty cool.

Surrey is mostly covered. They’re understating coverage while they work out things east of the river.

If you’re in Richmond should be covered. You should give them a call and make a report using the Network Builder http://care.windmobile.ca/Support/Network/Default.aspx
