[WISPA] [Fwd: Man on Cell Tower for 17 Hours...]
This is a situation where a WISP almost died because he did not follow the rules on proper tower safety. Get trained and get safe. Scriv Original Message Subject:Man on Cell Tower for 17 Hours... Date: Fri, 20 Oct 2006 09:42:59 -0500 From: Jeff Mabry [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: 'John Scrivner' [EMAIL PROTECTED] John: I do not know if you watch the list on Tower-Pro or not, but this rescue was up in Indiana, and it was required by a company called Advanced Computers Communications Systems. I am learning over the past few days that this is a WISP. Because of your stature with WISPA and the WISP community, I would appreciate it if you would forward this e-mail on to others in the WISP industry. Tower climbing and rescue training is a must if they are going to work in this business. People need to climbing pairs and have the knowledge, skill, and equipment to get climbers down quickly and safely in times of emergency. It took three fire departments to get this man down in over 10 hours. I am thankful they got him down alive. There are so many in the WISP business that monkey up towers without any thought of safety, I have heard stories and seen it first hand. The tower industry is criticizing this rescue, because it was required of a WISP and in their eyes WISPs are unlearned and untrained companies. Thank you for your support in building a safer industry.

Greetings Tower-Pro! First question - WHY couldn't employer rescue employee? If there are going to be those in the industry that can not prepare themselves for incidents like this, then I see a need. Most fire departments are not trained to perform rescues of this sort. I am very thankful that the firefighters from three departments got Mr. Burnette down safely. There are those of us in the industry that spend hours upon hours of training (and daily reminders to BE SAFE), and which follow the ComTrain rescue practices for situations just like this. We are scattered throughout this great Country. My Question: How can we develop and provide a nationwide registry of qualified and certified Tower Companies who are trained in these types of rescues to local fire and public safety departments? I commend the fire departments for doing their duty, what do you think the rescue time would have been if the employer had been trained? As we all know in some rescues, minutes matter. Had this been a more serious injury (i.e.- cut), do think Mr. Burnette would have made it down okay in the 10.5 hours he had to wait? Let's continue to build a safer industry. I encourage you all to take the time to learn how to climb safe and especially to know how to get a man or woman off a tower in an emergency. What is the value of life?

Re: [WISPA] Cablevision to cancle residential phone service in Conneticut
It probably means the take rate was small and they don't want to be bothered with it. Optimum Voice for Residential is probably about as profitable for them at $29.95 as Vonage. If SunRocket didn't just get an infusion of cash, I wonder if they would still be around. There are true costs involved with delivering voice, including beefing up the network to support it. The acquisition cost is high: hardware, install, and tech support. Cablevision's focus right now is beating Verizon in NYC and Long Island with their Lightpath fiber. Connecticut is old SNET and new att territory. CT has just 1 operating CLEC. Tough market. If I was a Residential WISP, would I do Resi VoIP? Depends on the ILEC and opportunity. Would I sell Voice-Optimized Platinum service? You betcha! Regards, Peter RAD-INFO, Inc. Marlon K. Schafer (509) 982-2181 wrote: Released: 10/18/2006.

Re: [WISPA] Re: Fwd: Tonight: Join SavetheInternet.com on PBS
I watched it too. Very nicely done. I'm not sure that I like the fact that there were no telcos there. I've got mixed emotions about this one. On the one hand, I don't like government over regulation. It's true that there isn't a problem today. It's also true that the telcos aren't to be trusted. I think I lean more to letting the market take care of it's self till we KNOW of a problem or an impending one. Someone else really needs to take the lead on this though. I fail to see any concrete reasons to be all worked up about anything other than the idea that all should be able to buy anything they can afford. The argument that some will have faster pipes than others rings hollow to me because the internet is already like that. The more you pay, the faster you can go. Gee, what a concept.

This is an issue which needs further study for sure. The sky is not falling I do not believe. Taking action to force complete neutrality on all net traffic is not in the best interest of a commercial ISP who has to make some tough decisions when looking at issues like peer to peer traffic and such. I am not interested in forcing myself to adhere to an all bits are created equal philosophy unless there are provisions that allow me to filter viruses, spam, limit excessive abusive traffic, etc. I think everyone needs to study the issue fully and then start thinking about how best to proceed. In the meantime we need to get a feel for what the possibility is of us all getting shafted at peering locations. I see this as the biggest threat to what we do as an industry.

Because of your stature with WISPA and the WISP community, I would appreciate it if you would forward this e-mail on to others in the WISP industry. Tower climbing and rescue training is a must if they are going to work in this business. People need to climbing pairs and have the knowledge, skill, and equipment to get climbers down quickly and safely in times of emergency. It took three fire departments to get this man down in over 10 hours. I am thankful they got him down alive. There are so many in the WISP business that monkey up towers without any thought of safety, I have heard stories and seen it first hand. The tower industry is criticizing this rescue, because it was required of a WISP and in their eyes WISPs are unlearned and untrained companies.

Most fire departments are not trained to perform rescues of this sort. I am very thankful that the firefighters from three departments got Mr. Burnette down safely. There are those of us in the industry that spend hours upon hours of training (and daily reminders to BE SAFE), and which follow the ComTrain rescue practices for situations just like this. We are scattered throughout this great Country. My Question: How can we develop and provide a nationwide registry of qualified and certified Tower Companies who are trained in these types of rescues to local fire and public safety departments? I commend the fire departments for doing their duty, what do you think the rescue time would have been if the employer had been trained? As we all know in some rescues, minutes matter. Had this been a more serious injury (i.e.- cut), do think Mr. Burnette would have made it down okay in the 10.5 hours he had to wait? Let's continue to build a safer industry.

I had an answering machine program that used the modem in my pc. I think every modem at the time came with software like that.

The sky is not falling I do not believe. Taking action to force complete neutrality on all net traffic is not in the best interest of a commercial ISP who has to make some tough decisions when looking at issues like peer to peer traffic and such. I am not interested in forcing myself to adhere to an all bits are created equal philosophy unless there are provisions that allow me to filter viruses, spam, limit excessive abusive traffic, etc. John, I have been looking for the words to describe my gut instinct here, and you came up with them with a precision far beyond anything I had been able to think up. Thanks. I think everyone needs to study the issue fully and then start thinking about how best to proceed. In the meantime we need to get a feel for what the possibility is of us all getting shafted at peering locations. I see this as the biggest threat to what we do as an industry. If we have to start paying prices like the old days or higher for bandwidth then this could get ugly real fast. Scriv Well, I think we should get a bunch of us into a huddle and start some rational analysis and see if we can arrive at scenarios where there REALLY is a risk to consumers or to business, or to us as WISP's. Danger to consumers: What if several larger providers... Let's say, the 3 largest providers of cable and dsl connectivity suddenly announced a new, low priced service: Broadband for half price, but those content providers NOT on the approved list (read: having paid the carriers money) will have thier content rate limited to dialup speed.Will consumers go for it? Will content providers pay up?Are any of the largish connectivity providers part of a media company? LEt's say Comcast bought a streaming movies for subscription provider, a music for subscription provider, and a couple news and entertainment providers online, and then proceeded to prioritieze thier own sites, and also rate limiting everyone else's. Is this possible? Wouldn't that be illegal under price fixing laws, or other anti-conspiracy statutes?In Comcast's hypothetical, as long as they inform the consumer of what's going on, is that really a problem? I harken back to the days of not so long ago, when I ran a BBS, and was actively searching for a provider to get a fractional T-1 in... This was in the mid to late 90's. I recall a big selling point at the time was unfiltered. Back then, many of the people who were selling connections to the internet were schools or businesses, and were actively involved in blocking various content, some even blocked all overseas traffic, as it was considered nuisance.Some just blocked certain ports to ensure that your connection was only used for what they allowed it to be used for. I don't see that anymore, instead I see a glut of commodity bandwidht sellers who have the all bits are equal philosophy when it comes to connectivity. Danger to US: what percentage of WISP's use a provider of retail connectivity as thier bandwidth provider?If, like the first situation above, OUR bandwidth was limited, content prioritiezed and deprioritized by our upstream, what would be our rights? Sad to say, I dont' think we actually HAVE any. I would like to see an ISP / NSP / backbone provider / other group get to gether and discuss this, people who have an interest in what's going on and wish to retain the ability to get what we paid for without someone else's demands concerning priorities and who's bits are worth what. And while we're on the subject, perhaps the REAL solution is not one of governmetn restricting or forcing actions on the part of ISP's in regards to how they run their networks.MAybe all that's really needed, like in the instance at first where I named Comcast, is that ISP's simply be required to state if they employ any means of prioritizing or deprioritizing traffic based upon content, application, or provider to the consumer, and be required to reveal who gets priority and who doesn't.Frankly, I think business would boom for the small guys, if the big guys decided to try to screw the consumers over by limiting access based upon what content provider ponied up and bought priority.Like political campaigns... I don't really care how much someone gives some guy running for office.
