Welcome to politics... I would bet they have some sweetheart deal with the Sheriff's Office, probably buddies with the Sheriff himself. I wouldn't doubt if they started reselling bandwidth on 4.9ghz PTMP.

Box 126 Bucyrus, OH 44820 419-562-6405 www.wavelinc.com -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Travis Johnson Sent: Saturday, November 15, 2008 12:30 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]; WISPA General List Subject: [WISPA] County Hi, I discovered today that one of my competitors that has setup several (6+) new licensed links (using 11ghz, 18ghz and 23ghz) in the last year is using the local Sheriff's office as the contact and registered owner in the FCC database. I'm sure the Sheriff's office is using the links for their public safety service (because that's how they are registered on the FCC site), but I also know this competitor has setup at least one link that is not in an area where the Sheriff's office would need any type of service (and therefore is only using it for their own traffic). First, I assume this is legal because the Sheriff's office is probably paying for all this equipment. However, because they are a "public" office, I assume that anyone that wanted to use that transport should be allowed, since they are allowing this other provider that is installing them? Also, I would assume this would hold true for several towers (owned by the same county) that this competitor is on for free. If they allowed this person on the towers (in exchange for moving traffic), I would think they would have to allow me on as well? Thoughts?
