Funny thing is another telco is building FTTH to the whole area this summer.  

If anyone has Frontier in their area, for many years the field [has been] white 
and ready to harvest.  

If you don’t overbuild them someone else will.

Seems like a lot of guv money for a puny 138Mbps path.

  Thanks
  Looks like Frontier did not update their license ...

  11 Ghz  Still shows Alcate MDR-8611-135 radio.

  16 km on one side 1 km on the other side of the billboard.  
  That seems to be the requirement for billboards,  very short leg on one side.

    Cambium is getting torn up at a Utah Public Service Commission hearing this 
morning.  

    Frontier installed a pair of Cambium something between Bald Mesa and Castle 
Valley Utah in December to change out a TDM radio.  

    Bad fading on Cambium.  

    A resort ranch filed a complaint and I am listening to he hearing this 
morning.  Frontier is complaining that they got no support from Cambium.  The 
radios would work for 3 or 4 days and then troubles would come again over and 
over.  Frontier changed out the Cambium radio in March.  

    They removed Cambium and said they have removed them as a vendor company 
wide.  
    They changed to Aviat.  Supposedly the new radios fixed everything.  Typing 
this as I am listening to the hearing.

    The ranch still had some problems after changing to Aviat.  Frontier says 
that the the new radios fixed everything.  The new radio has not had any drop 
outs.  

    This is a two hop system.  They are changing out cambium on the second leg 
with Aviat soon.  Passive repeater system on the second leg.  Fog causes 
fading.  Drops modulation down to low QAM levels.  Frontier claims the second 
Aviat radio will make this network flawless.  When asked what that means 
Frontier answered 99.99%

    Frontier is in process to take action against Cambium.  CAF money was used 
to buy the Cambium radios.
    Second leg is scheduled for commissioning next week.  

    Someone should take a look at this license and tell me the details on that 
passive repeater side.  I am curious as to the leg distances.  Too lazy to look 
it up.  Frontier Telephone Company or whatever they are called now.  Moab to 
Bald Mesa.  Bald Mesa to Castle Valley.  Passive on the second leg.    I am 
betting these are 6 GHz links with huge antennas.
