Around here I can state as a fact that new pole attachments became a big
hurdle. In the 80's when they did most of the coax they just met with
the telco and power field guys and verbally agreed to a plan for trunk
lines. Service drops were installed on the fly by field techs with no
approval

In Utah, the telco I work for would snap them right up. Most other small rural
telcos will do the same if they are offered.
If done right they can be a cash cow. But you hav

That's been true around here for quite some time for att (formerly SBC,
formerly PacBell, formerly ATT). We have individual homes separated by

Frontier gets away with ignoring POLR status. If the cable is bad and there
