German mobile phone users to troubleshoot last coverage dead spots
Germany's mobile phone networks have improved significantly in recent years, but the last spots of poor coverage remain in both urban and rural areas. — AFP Relaxnews DUSSELDORF: Mobile phone owners across Germany are urged in the coming days to support an initiative to locate and report the last dead spots in network reception. Organised by the federal, state and local governments, the first nationwide mobile phone measurement week is to start on Monday and run until next Sunday. Citizens should use the Federal Network Agency's free broadband measurement app to help close the last of the infamous gaps in coverage that have long frustrated callers and Internet users. "Together we will create an up-to-date picture of network availability – and thus provide a database for better mobile coverage overall," said Digital Minister Karsten Wildberger. Germany's mobile phone networks have improved significantly in recent years, but the last spots of poor coverage remain in both urban and rural areas. Last year, a mobile phone measurement week of this kind was already organised in the state of North Rhine-Westphalia. – dpa
