    Hi all,

    This way be in the wrong forum and apologies if it is, but there is a new Three mast gone up in the area here, as part of the National Broadband Scheme, and I'm just wondering will this help improve the 3 phone coverage in the area or would that require separate equipment?

    It serves both voice and data so yes it will

    There is only a 3 Mobile phone network. There is no NBS network, just NBS areas.

    3 only have a Mobile Phone licence and the data "piggy backs" on the phone network. So no different equipment needed.
