Sprint can't be beat for reception out here. I don't know where Kearny is but I live in rural Warren County near Rt 80 and the Delaware River. We rarely cut out on the mountain roads, and when we do it is only for a few seconds. The only thing is that Sprint customer service leaves a little to be desired, but we've kept it through moves to 4 states because the coverage was so good. Hope this helps! Also, my hubby drives into NYC often for work and he never hits a dead spot from home to city. So we have experience with a pretty large area.
