Then it's probably going to have to compete with a starlink solution?

Yes, but poor speed and of course lousy latency.

Does the ILEC already have a Satellite ground station? Can’t recall the details but I remember doing GIS work for the first ARRA award under the Obama stimulus and it was in Alaska. Rivada Networks rings a bell but I would have to go digging to be sure. There were a bunch of remote areas in the state and I think Satellite backhaul was the solution of choice. VSAT terminals I think.

Thank you,

The problem is that they are served by an ILEC. Considering buying and upgrading the ILEC... So starlink does not help with that.

That's above the 40th parallel. Just sell them Starlink. It might be happening sooner.

    "I need to get fiber 400 miles further than absolute nowhere, AK" is
    such a Chuck McCown problem.

    That Unalaska fiber may not be happening yet:

        I did. None.  The USDA is working to get a fiber out to Unalaska
        but I need to go about 400 miles more.

        Also, did you check with https://www.submarinecablemap.com/ and
        https://www.infrapedia.com/ (needs login) to make sure that
        there isn't already cable nearby?

            There are big companies like Alcatel Submarine networks. For
            a smaller and likely easier-to-speak-with company, you can
            try Crosslake fiber. If you want general information on the
            undersea industry, I can send a number of informative links.

                Anyone know anyone that is related to placing undersea

                Alaska.  No idea where to start.
