New FirstNet Cell Site Launches Near Gary to Support First Responders in Norman County

First responders in northwestern Minnesota are getting a major boost in their wireless communications thanks to the FirstNet network expansion currently underway by AT&T. FirstNet added a new, purpose-built cell site located near Gary and just west of the White Earth Reservation in Minnesota’s Red River Valley region.

FirstNet sites already launched in communities across Minnesota including Angle Inlet, Bagley, Baudette, Blackduck, Cloquet, Ely (Echo Trail, Meander Lake), Ely (Echo Trail, Twin Lakes), Faribault, Hokah, Isabella, Peterson, Finlayson, Graceville, Grand Marais (Gunflint Trail), Grygla, Hovland, Kellogg, Lewiston, Orr (Kjostad Lake), Tofte (Lichen Lake), Togo and Williams.

This new infrastructure will also help improve the overall coverage experience for AT&T wireless customers in the area. Residents, visitors and businesses can take advantage of the AT&T commercial spectrum bands, as well as Band 14 when capacity is available.
