Not specifically, but down that way and around the Rathdowney area
generally. I don't know whether it's handset related or network
related. We have 4 of the handsets, so I'd suggest it's a network
problem unless we happened to get 4 faulty handsets. I work in
emergency services and we use mobile phones operationally all the time.
CDMA works fine out there, but NextG doesn't.
