Since Verizon and Comcast pay their lobbyist 6 figure sala
My two cents is that BIP/BTOP is going to be great for vendors and
terrible for WISPs. The vendors don't care who gets awarded the money

What's wrong with that? That's only about $83k a month, which if you
have a high ARPU could be as few as 800-1000 existing subscribers. I can
