OK, different colors, have to click on a tract to see the bidder.  I see a lot 
of AMG Technology Investment Group LLC, no idea who that is.  And I see Benton 
Ridge Telephone Co. in our area.  I can’t find Watchcomm though in your 
Illinois file.  Are they under an alternative name?

All of those areas have been awarded to the entity mentioned. Note there are 
multiple layers, one for each company that won funds in a given state.

Mike, are those areas where the incumbent passed up CAF money, or are you  
saying Watchcomm was awarded money for all those areas in the auction?

They're a customer of mine in Indianapolis.

They've been offering to buy WISPs in areas they won CAF funds. I think they'll 
be partnering with neighboring WISPs where they can't buy them.

Has anyone run into these guys?  https://watchcomm.net  We've heard a 
rumor that they're going to be moving into Illinois backed by CAF 
money.  Their website isn't giving us any reason for pause, their 
"Legacy network" highest plan is only 25mb/s.  Looks like they're doing 
TV just with DISH installs.
