That was my guess as well..
It says they are participating in the CAF not being supported by it.
Arkansas along with a few other south east region states are considered very rural.

No detail there. I don’t know how, unless they are doing one of the experimental CAF projects like Rise/JAB is doing.

Yeah,
I faintly remember that discussion. Not all its cut out to be.
It just gives more fodder to the FCC for better coverage to ATT so that they can buy some time to block other incumbents for a chance at some subsidy moneys.
They are using the CAF to do this with.

Verizon has, or had, an LTE fixed solution a few years ago. I am pretty sure it was depply discussed on this list. It was UBB at around 10G for $100 if memory serves. ATT will likely try to be in the same ballpark. On Tue, May 17, 2016 at 2:54 PM David <[email protected] <mailto:[email protected]>> wrote:
