No question technology plays a big part on "coverage". However, the bandwidth available at each wireless tower is limited by the size of the pipe that transports voice and data up and down to the network. Been there, done that, for many years.
So, given a finite pipe capacity, the best return on investment is to max out the more profitable services (data/text) over the pipe, and in heavy traffic periods, actually choke low revenue services(voice).
Technology allows that capability, also.
Wish I had had an AT&T Smartphone available for the comparison. That might have proved whether the "coverage" problem I have is due to my cheap phones or the distance to a tower.
