Yes, HT was bought by Cin Bell. CB was then bought by an out of country

Somewhat like how GTE was independent in other places in the country.

Some of the Hawaii ILEC structures I have seen photos of in other
non-fire-affected places and other islands have a resemblance to designs
that were built by BCTel, the ILEC in British Columbia, at the time when
GTE was a shareholder in BCTel.
