The key for Comcast is to make sure your contract says intra-state and
not inter-state for the tax jurisdiction. They don't collect USF on
intra-state circuits, only local city/county/state taxes as applicable.
If your contract says inter-state (and it isn't inter-state), you can

Right. Ok on the same page then. :)

Im not understanding what you are asking, but
The link I provided was the bill (internet freedom act) extended through Nov

The uncertainty came in what the definition was of Internet access. And i

"For fixed point to-point transmitters that employ a directional antenna
gain greater than 23 dBi, a 1 dB reduction in maximum conducted output
power and maximum power spectral density is required for each 1 dB of

What is the assumed transmitter power? 30dBm?
They all do. (i.e. try to screw the ISP/NSP/WISP)
Chase down the person in-charge of their Tax Dept, and ask them for ITNA Tax

Even though you are addressing this to Fred,
I would like to point out where your confusion is coming from :-
First of all, you need to keep in mind that USF is a tax from the Federal Gov,
imposed on the Telecom Service Provider, however the Service provider is
allowed to recover this from it'
Oh really? Comcast wants to charge me 16% USF on a point to point to carry

Fred,
Ok, so in summary
A WISP Internet Provider is an "Information Service" and does not collect or
charge USF. And that end-to-end Internet Information Service solution is
composed of 3 In-line components, working togeather as one.

hmmm.. not quite accurate...
Internet Freedom Act was updated to allow for taxes not to apply to internet
access as well as communication circuits carrying internet access.

an internet circuit.
As far as I know the internet freedom act only applies to Internet access.

condensed answer ..
1. You can claim exemption from communication taxes if you ask for ITNA
(Internet Taxation Freedom Act) Exemption.. (Most providers now have forms for
it, even though it is not easy to get them to provide the forms)., as long as
you are not in a grandfathered state.

If you've worked with any company that does mailers and is a member, would
you mind posting your experience (onlist or not)?
I'm looking at targeting an area and I'd rather not do all of that work
