Scottie,
There just weren't enough of us to stop things like that from happening.
It's a chicken and egg thing. It takes members to get things done. Some
don't want to join until we can point to positive results.
I guess it's a matter of how far in the future do you want to look? If you
Hit me off list and I can offer some suggestions.

As I mentioned, the 75% rule only applies to wireline providers
(i.e., cable), so mapping WISP coverage buys nothing.
The Boucher-Terry bill has nothing in it to help WISPs and plenty to

That is understood, however I think that WISPA may try to lobby to
have the term wireline removed such that any technology that delivers the
defined broadband and voice services should be qualified to meet the 75%
requirement. This is still a bill and not a law so there are
Yes but if the cable companies could also ally with wireless carriers to get
other areas excluded from USF subsidies, the field would be a more level one
should the cable companies try to compete in other markets. We might also
get Clearwire and the cellular carriers to support the position
Yes Patrick I agree with you but remember who is lobbying this bill. They
will play to win even though the government is not supposed to be picking
winners..

your responses.

Fred,
Does the bill state that the voice and data service have to be
provided by the SAME carrier or just that the consumer has access to them?
Would cellular service qualify in that case? Thought is that is there is
cell or CLEC service and a WISP also covers the same area with only
Yes, he is very informative! Thanks Fred. Always helps for everyone to know
the other side of the fence and get a reality check of the world we play in.

I agree with Fred on this. I have read many of his statements on
cybertelecom's email list. If you are an ISP, I strongly recommend that
you join it off of http://www.cybertelecom.org/
Since around 2002, maybe a little earlier, at the time of The
Tauzin-Dingell Telecom Bill, the Congress, and
Steve Coran just posted the message below to the WISPA FCC committee list. I
took particular note to the following statement:
- would reduce or deny support to wireline incumbents in areas where at
least 75% of households can receive voice and broadband from a competitive
provider that does
- would reduce or deny support to wireline incumbents in areas where at

Also,
Keep in mind that we offer free 477 data prep in a program on our web site.
Go to www.wispmon.com and click on the FCC 477 Util.. You can even download
a free desktop geocoder to pre-geocode your data (makes things go a little
faster in the form prep). No proprietary info has to be given.
I'd like to but I dont know where to begin and with my limited time I
cant even try to figure it out.
