There is some cell coverage in the area of Furnace Creek, but nothing in the north end of the valley. Camped near Stovepipe Wells...no coverage there. Scotty's Castle...ZIP... Tried several higher places near Ubehebe, Racetrack, etc... nada! Spent several days up there this past week without hearing any activity on standard ham radio VHF/UHF calling frequencies. Listened for repeater coverage off Potosi with no luck. HF works everywhere of course and we had that along. Heard and easily talked to many stations throughout the western states on 40M SSB. Don't know about CB.
