No tape, etc. Just no information. It just sounds unlikely to have it permanently done like that just to minimize phone calls when you are out of your area.
Flying under the radar to avoid business licenses? They would have to prove that I did business in their town, just driving through it just is not going to work. I don't know what the deal is - but it sure looked strange. Marketing to me seems to be a big failing for many small businesses, and a lot of WISP's. Web pages without coverage maps (Afraid your competition may find out? Puhleaze...) Web pages without city and state, or telephone number? I see it all the time......
