They'll keep it as DeKalb is a tandem and that's how they serve the area. They'll lease space on the tower too, just not at WISP friendly prices. When I inquired oh ten years ago they said they had one live microwave link, but I didn't know which, who, where, etc.

It was also one of the ground sites for the Air Force 1 secure communications network, I don’t know if that’s still operational, I think maybe it is. Last I heard DeKalb, IL is still an active fiber POP. Tower is not used, but they won’t least space or sell it. It’s right in town and not a very well kept secret.
