Summary
Beaver Island Forum participants reported equipment work near the north-end cell tower in August 2013 and apparent AT&T service activation in November. Users reported stronger or newly available signals in some areas, while others still lacked coverage.
Evidence limits
This is a probable infrastructure/service change based on contemporaneous user observations and a local news explanation. It is not a carrier deployment record, engineering report, or island-wide coverage assessment.

- Forum participants reported apparent AT&T activation and exchanged location-specific signal observations; Joe Moore emphasized that the short survey was not a complete coverage assessment and that the upgrade was intended primarily to improve existing service.
