I had on my Cell C card the other day and some how the cell broadcast came on.

Now for the past few years I would get the cellular tower with a code next to it for example Durban-3..now today I find Durban-3 also has Durban-1 ..

Now i put "Durban" as an example, thou i know that there is only one Cell Tower in the area yet the code reads -3 and now -1 with my area name with it.

My understanding from Vodacom is that adding the number to the area eg durban-5 simply means that it was the 5th tower in the area...(thats my understanding)

QUESTION: Wasup with the Cell C coding of their towers. For Years the cb read xxx-3 no xxx-1 no xxx-2 now both xxx-1 & xxx-3

P.S- Its just good to know these things:D
