Cell ID 41323
Routing Area Code 1
Location Area Code 3
Base Station Identity Code 7
Absolute Radio Frequency Channel Number 158

Whatever any of that means????
Thanks for the info. Below is a what I believe each of these mean.

Cell ID: Each antenna is given a unique cell ID (unique within a region for each carrier). Typically antennas on the same tower have the same first four digits.

Channel Number: < 500 is in the 850 Mhz band, > 500 is in the 1900 Mhz Band. For more info see http://tk.com/wireless/
